Abstract: An authentication system may receive an authentication MAC, an integrity MAC, and data transmitted from a payment application and a payment terminal. A local integrity MAC may be generated using the data as an input to a first cryptographic operation. The system may compare the local integrity MAC to the received integrity MAC to authenticate the received integrity MAC. A local authentication MAC may be generated using a second cryptographic operation and compare the local authentication MAC to the received authentication MAC. The system may authenticate the payment application in response to a successful authentication of at least one of the received authentication MAC or the received integrity MAC.

Abstract: A system may generate a seed one-time password (OTP). The system may also perform steps including transmitting the seed OTP to a user device, receiving a response OTP from the user device, and calculating an expected response OTP by applying a function to the seed OTP. The system may then compare the response OTP to the expected response OTP and send a result in response to comparing the response OTP to the expected response OTP.

Abstract: The system may transmit a signal originating from a BLUETOOTH low energy (“BLE”) beacon at a merchant location. The signal may include a first identifier associated with the merchant location and a merchant device. A customer device may receive the signal within a predetermined distance of the BLE beacon. The system may receive a transmission sent by the customer device in response to the signal from the BLE beacon. The transmission may include a second identifier associated with the user. The system may identify the user associated with the customer device based on the second identifier. The user may be at the merchant location.

Abstract: Systems and methods for transaction authorizations using a distributed database are disclosed. The system may allow registered transaction account holders and merchants to interact and complete transactions according to workflows enforced by smart contracts. The system may include an issuer system that receives a transaction authorization request comprising a merchant ID, a transaction account number, a transaction amount, and a transaction ID. The issuer system may retrieve a merchant public key and a smart contract based on the merchant ID, and a user public key based on the transaction account number. The issuer system may invoke the smart contract by passing the user public key and the transaction ID to the smart contract. The system may propagate transaction data (e.g., the merchant ID, the transaction account number, the payment amount, a transaction status, etc.) to a blockchain network for writing to a blockchain according to the invoked smart contract.

Abstract: The method of processing an analysis cycle to determine interest merchants may include selecting a seed merchant relevant to a topic interest, identifying consumers that have completed a transaction with the seed merchant to generate a list of identified consumers, determining merchants visited by the identified consumers, scoring all the merchants based on network connectivity, activity, and merchant over-index, updating the seed merchant in response to the list of scored merchants relative to a scoring threshold, and scoring the list of identified consumers based on the number of distinct merchants in transaction and over-indexing. Additionally, the method may further comprise producing a list of updated interest merchants and a list of updated identified consumers, where the updated interest merchants and the updated identified consumers are relevant to the topic interest.

Abstract: A single sign-on system using blockchain is disclosed. The single sign-on system may interconnect various organization systems over a peer-to-peer network, with each organization system having a blockchain node and an application programming interface (API). The blockchain node invokes and uses a smart contract to write registration credentials to the blockchain during a registration process. During a login process, the blockchain node invokes the smart contract to determine whether login credentials match stored login credentials in the blockchain. In response to matching login credentials, the API may generate a single sign-on token that can be used by a user device to access one or more organization systems connected over the network.

Abstract: Systems for decoupling and updating pinned certificates on a user device are disclosed. A mobile application having a hardcoded pinned certificate may be installed on a user device. The pinned certificate may be decoupled from the mobile application and stored on the user device. In response to the mobile application attempting to establish a secure connection with a server, the system may check whether the decoupled pinned certificate is current by querying a certificate repository. In response to determining that the pinned certificate is out of date, the system may transmit the current certificate to the user device to update the decoupled pinned certificate.

Abstract: Systems and methods of improving the operation of a transaction network and transaction network devices is disclosed. A lightning KNN host may comprise various modules and engines as discussed herein wherein lookalike records may be identified whereby the speed of the lightning KNN network may be enhanced and the accuracy and precision of results improved whereby the transaction network more properly functions according to approved parameters.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed herein leveraging financial networks standards with mobile device data and secure processing and storage environment knowledge to authenticate a device. For instance, a party to a transaction may utilize these elements of information, not traditionally associated with wireless transactions, to achieve a lower probability of fraud and/or a higher confidence associated with the transaction.

Abstract: A funds-transfer system enables a buyer to transfer funds to a seller via a mobile telephone. The system receives a payment request transmitted from a mobile telephone of the buyer. The payment request is for a transfer of funds from a financial account held by the buyer to a financial account held by the seller, and the payment request is transmitted from a payment application stored in the buyer's mobile telephone. The payment request identifies a purchase amount to be transferred, and information identifying the financial account held by the buyer. The system charges the purchase amount to the financial account held by the buyer and transfers the purchase amount to a financial account held by the seller.

Abstract: A method and a system are provided for preventing unauthorized access to financial accounts. A financial services system creates and stores a global external number corresponding to a funding account number that is associated with a financial account. A vendor system requests the corresponding global external number from the financial services system, which returns the corresponding global external number. The vendor system stores the global external number with customer identification information and/or transaction records. The vendor system requests payments for transactions by supplying the global external number stored in a transaction record to the financial services system. The financial services system authenticates the vendor system, and returns the corresponding funding account number. The vendor system generates a transaction settlement request using the funding account number.
