  • User Verification with Non-Fungible Tokens
    Publication number: 20240086503
    Abstract: A computing system receives a request to verify a user, the request comprising an indication of a jurisdiction in which the user will be verified. Based on the request, the computing system collects information related to the user. Based on the request, the computing system identifies a workflow corresponding to the jurisdiction. The workflow defines conditions for obtaining a verified status in the jurisdiction. The computing system executes the workflow to verify the user. The computing system hashes the verification record using a zero-knowledge proof protocol. The computing system generates a non-fungible token corresponding to the verification record. The non-fungible token is associated with a hashed version of the verification record. The computing system broadcasts the non-fungible token to a blockchain.

  • Controlling an availability policy for a virtual machine based on changes in a real world environment
    Patent number: 7966614
    Abstract: Management of a virtual machine is enhanced by establishing an initial availability policy for the machine. Once the virtual machine is invoked, the real environment for the virtual machine is monitored for the occurrence of predetermined events. If a real environment event is detected that could affect the availability of the virtual machine, the availability policy of the virtual machine is automatically adjusted to reflect the new or predicted state of the real environment.
