Publication number: 20230188364Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for providing encryption of data with data separation. Various aspects may include performing determining a request payload for a communication from a client device. Aspects may also include creating a first reference data object for a first subset of data fields of the request payload. Aspects may also include creating a second reference data object for a second subset of data fields. Aspects may also include replacing a first value of the first subset with a first reference value. Aspects may include replacing a second value of the second subset with a second reference value. Aspects may include encrypting a response payload with the first reference data object and the second reference data object in an encrypted text-based structured data file format with a cryptographic key.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Shipeng Xu, Nikant Vohra, Konstantinos Chalkias

Publication number: 20220076271Abstract: A system or method may be provided to facilitate automatic user authentication for electronic transactions. In particular, the system or method may automatically authenticate a customer such that the customer may make complete hands free payments without the intervention of the customer or the merchant. The automatic authentication may include a check-in process and a payment authentication process. When a customer enters a designated area of a merchant, a BLE beacon device of the merchant may automatically check in the customer at the designated area of the merchant. After the customer is checked in at the merchant's designated area, the merchant may identify the customer who is about to make a payment from a plurality of other customers who also are checked in at the merchant via Bluetooth proximity and facial recognition in parallel. Thus, the customer may automatically be authenticated to make payments by facial recognition or Bluetooth proximity.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventors: Nikant Vohra, Priyanshu Agarwal, Tushar Raibhandare, Prasanna Annamalai, Anupam Pahuja

Patent number: 10713651Abstract: A method for a shared resource management system is discussed. The method includes managing a shareable digital artifact for sharing between applications hosted by a user devices. The shared artifact is accessible, at the same time, by first and second application. The use of the shared artifact by the first application makes the shared artifact unavailable for use by the second application. The method includes determining whether a notification is received from the first application indicating that the shared artifact is used by the first application at a merchant. The method includes, in response to a determination that the notification is received, marking the shared artifact used. In response to marking the shared artifact used, a used artifact notification is sent to the second application to indicate that the shared artifact has been used and it is unavailable for use by the second application.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: July 14, 2020Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventors: Sathish Vaidyanathan, Nikant Vohra, Aditya Bharadwaj, Akshay Goel

Publication number: 20150278780Abstract: The present disclosure involves a system. The system includes a computer memory storing user account information comprising artifacts of a user account that are shared with one or more other users. The system also includes a computer processor operatively coupled to the computer memory. The computer processor is configured to perform the following operations: receiving, from a first user via a first user device, a selection of one or more artifacts to be shared from an account of the first user; receiving, from the first user via the first user device, a selection of a recipient with whom the artifact(s) are to be shared; and populating the artifact(s) in one or more accounts of the recipient.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2014Publication date: October 1, 2015Inventors: Sathish Vaidyanathan, Nikant Vohra, Aditya Bharadwaj, Akshay Goel
