Patent number: 11916919Abstract: The resolving of a decentralized identifier to a corresponding data structure using multiple resolvers. This allows for the use of a consensus of resolvers to improve trust in the resolution process. In order to resolve, a decentralized identifier is sent to multiple resolvers. In response, each of at least some of those resolvers will return a data structure of a particular type (e.g., a decentralized identifier document) that is associated with the decentralized identifier. Then, it is determined whether the data structure for at least some number of resolvers matches each other. That is, it is determined whether at least some predetermined threshold of resolvers is returning the same data structure (e.g., the same decentralized identifier document). If so, then it is determined that the matching data structure is indeed associated with the decentralized identifier. Otherwise, the resolution process has failed.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Brandon Murdoch, Ankur Patel, Daniel James Buchner

Patent number: 11909753Abstract: Techniques for fingerprinting and aggregating a virtual private cloud (VPC) flow log stream are provided. Each VPC flow log event in the VPC flow log is first determined to be a request event or a response event. A fingerprint is then generated for each VPC flow log event. The fingerprint for a VPC flow log event is generated based on the determination whether the VPC flow log event is a request event or a response event and by concatenating and encoding data contained in a set of data fields corresponding to the VPC flow log event. Based on the fingerprint generated for each VPC flow log event, related events can be detected and aggregated to form an aggregated event. Information stored with each aggregated event can then be used to better monitor the VPC.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventor: Seth Patrick Carroll

Systems and methods for authenticating an electronic transaction using hosted authentication service
Patent number: 11909736Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating an electronic transaction using a hosted authentication service. The systems and methods determine whether an authentication is required based on a first electronic message received from a first data system. Upon determining the authentication is required, the systems and methods transmit a dummy authentication request and a hosted authentication service uniform resource locator to the first data system. The systems and methods further determine or receive an indication whether a user authentication challenge is required based on a transaction risk analysis by a second data system. Upon determining the user authentication challenge is required, the systems and methods provide, at a user interface, an electronic form including a challenge request. The systems and methods transmit, to the first data system, another electronic form including a dummy authentication response generated based on a challenge result.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Worldpay LimitedInventor: Christopher S.
