  • Patent number: 10735495
    Abstract: The invention provides systems and methods for automatically delivering a file from an originating computer system including a processor and memory to a destination computer system including a processor and memory. The method includes creating at least one master file delivery application and at least two file delivery agents running on the at least one originating computer system. A first file delivery agent of the at least two file delivery agents is controlled by a first master file delivery application of the at least one master file delivery application. A second file delivery agent of the at least two file delivery agents is run either by a second master file application. The method also includes dynamically balancing loads by the one master file delivery application, between the first file delivery agent controlled by the first master file delivery application and the second file delivery agent.

  • Patent number: 10402911
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for removing credit card numbers from a financial transaction record is provided. A temporary record containing only numeric characters is generated by parsing non-numeric characters from the financial transaction record. Numeric strings are then parsed from the temporary record and evaluated to determine if the parsed numeric strings potentially comprise a credit card number. Numeric strings that are evaluated as potentially comprising credit card numbers may then be further evaluated to determine if the numeric strings comprise valid credit card numbers. The original financial transaction record may then be searched for numeric strings evaluated as valid credit card numbers. Any string of consecutive characters that match a validated credit card number may then be replaced with white space characters or other innocuous characters in the transaction record.
