  • Publication number: 20240031375
    Abstract: Systems and methods of managing fraudulent devices are provided. The system detects a request for a connection to communicatively couple a technician computing device with a receiver computing device. The system identifies connection data for the connection. The system requests, based on the connection data, a plurality of account values. Each of the plurality of account values is associated with an account that the technician computing device used to establish the connection. The system generates a score indicating a fraudulent level of the account based on the plurality of account values. The system terminates, responsive to a comparison of the score with a fraud threshold, the connection. The system transmits, to a ticketing system, a support ticket generated responsive to the comparison of the score with the fraud threshold.

  • Publication number: 20230403308
    Abstract: Remote control to facilitate the management, configuration, or maintenance of information technology infrastructure is provided. The system activates a real-time communication session and a code for the real-time communication session. The system generates a link with an indication of the code for the real-time communication session. The system transmits the link to a mobile telecommunications device that launches a web browser to request content. The system receives the request for content, and obtains access to data from a sensor of the mobile telecommunications device. The system identifies the real-time communication session corresponding to the code. The system establishes, via a web socket over a network protocol, the real-time communication session with a data feed from the sensor. The system provides, based on at least a portion of the data feed, a command to control the mobile telecommunications device.

  • Publication number: 20230359962
    Abstract: The present disclosure facilitates interfacing between a sales management system and a project planning system. In some embodiments, the system includes an interface and schedule engine, both executing on a server. The interface can parse a sales order from the sales management system into products and project tasks within the products. The products can also include at least one of a labor product, a parts product, and an agreements product. The schedule engine can generate schedule tasks corresponding to the project tasks, determine a performance order of the schedule tasks, and combine the schedule tasks into schedule phases based on the performance order. The schedule engine can determine a performance order of the schedule phases and combine the schedule phases into a schedule component based on the performance order. The interface can transmit the schedule component to the project planning system for execution.

  • Publication number: 20230319127
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to providing remote access capabilities in information technology infrastructure. In particular, systems and methods of the present disclosure can establish a connection between a remote computing device and a host computing device, transition a system session of the remote computing device to an interactive state, display a hidden desktop within the transitioned system session, and present a user interface on the hidden desktop. The user interface can include an icon that launches a second application of the remote computing device within the transitioned system session. In response to a command from the host computing device, the hidden desktop can be terminated.

  • Patent number: 11743149
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure facilitate managing information technology service level agreements. In some embodiments, the system includes a server that accesses a database storing a support ticket in memory. The support ticket can include a creation time and a service level agreement. The service level agreement can include a maximum response time. The server initiates, via the computer network, responsive to input from a computing device, a chat session associated with the computing device and the support ticket. The initiating can be associated with a time stamp. The server can be configured to determine a compliance with the service level agreement. The compliance can be computed as a difference between the time stamp and the creation time being less than the maximum response time. The server can be configured to generate a notification of the compliance with the service level agreement.

  • Publication number: 20230155900
    Abstract: The present disclosure facilitates improving the operation of a cloud service by updating its configuration information and its resource requirements. The resource utilization of the cloud service can be monitored, and a decision logic module can determine whether action is required. When action is required, an update can be prepared and applied, and notifications can be generated about the condition and its resolution. Resolutions can require correlation of multiple cloud services to provide real-time access to information that is not otherwise available to a single entity. Resolutions can be learned and predicted in a number of ways using a predictive engine.

  • Publication number: 20230145471
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of managing remote devices. The system can include a server with memory, a detection module, and a collection module. The memory can store a management information base (MIB) having a hierarchical tree of object identifiers and corresponding object values. The detection module can query devices and receive a first object identifier and its first object value, which can vary from those in the MIB; and use patterns to match the first object identifier and object value; and generate an identification of the device from the matches. The collection module can use the identification to select a collection template, which can indicate a subtree of the MIB and a collection pattern; traverse the subtree and identify a second object identifier that matches the collection pattern, and its second object value; and associate the second object value with the first object value.
