Patent number: 11954746Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment, an automated system assesses risks associated with real estate entities. The system may include computing systems and devices for extracting data attributes for real estate entities from received source data, and the extracted data attributes may each be associated with a particular data level for a real estate entity. The system can link data attributes in adjacent data levels with unique linkage information and compute metrics for each of the real estate entities from the data attributes where each computed metric may be associated with one of the data levels. The system can assess an amount of risk associated with each of the real estate entities based on the computed metrics and present the assessed amount of risk for one or more real estate entities to a remote computing device of a user responsive to receiving a risk assessment request.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2019Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac)Inventors: Stanislav Kornienko, Fabio Quijada, Brendan McKinley, Evelyn Suzette Johnson, Angela Rae Macias Helgeson

Patent number: 11947407Abstract: A computer system, method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium are provided. A request including unauthenticated data is created and securely transmitted to a remote device, metadata corresponding to the request is updated to indicate successful validation, a response file is validated, and a discrepancy is detected between the unauthenticated data and the authenticated data. Correction data is obtained, and a transaction based on the request and the correction data is executed. A second processor of the remote device verifies that an unauthorized user has not modified the authenticated data, generates a database table based on one or more fields of the authenticated data, extracts one or more predetermined data values from the authenticated data and the database table, and validates the unauthenticated data in the request based on comparing the one or more predetermined data values from the authenticated data and the database table to the unauthenticated data in the request.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: FEDERAL HOME LOAN MORTGAGE CORPORATION (FREDDIE MAC)Inventors: David M.
