Patent number: 11887187Abstract: A streamline banking system includes a customer kiosk having a photographic element and a processor. The processor is programmed to capture an image with the photographic element and determine that the captured image comprises an image of a machine-readable code. The processor decodes the machine-readable code and extracts customer financial account data therefrom. The customer financial account data is associated with one or more financial institutions. The processor retrieves information associated with one or more financial product offerings offered by the financial institutions. Each of the financial institutions is presented to a customer along with the respective financial accounts and the respective financial product offerings. The customer selects one or more of the financial accounts and the financial product offerings. The customer kiosk then transmits to the customer service computing system the customer selection.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Mastercard International IncorporatedInventors: William Raymond Bowie, Regan E.

Patent number: 11886414Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods allowing provider server and an analytics server to communicate confidential information but not compromise the anonymity of the customers if the data transmitted in either direction were to be intercepted or otherwise viewed by an unauthorized party, each server is configured to transmit the data records of the customers without any personally identifying information (PII) associated with the customers. The databases may “link” the data records by separately generating customer key identifiers for each unique customer having data in the one or both of the databases, according to predefined parameters and a predetermined one-way hashing algorithm.

Patent number: 11887124Abstract: The invention provides systems, methods and computer program products for securing electronic transactions and users of electronic transaction services from phishing attacks by malicious attackers and fraudsters. A terminal device receives a first data communication comprising an OTP associated with a requested electronic transaction, and identifies a validity period associated with the OTP. The terminal device responds to detection of a second data communication between the terminal device and a remote entity during the identified validity period, by extracting content from the second data communication. The extracted content is analyzed and a risk decision is generated based on output of the analysis of the extracted content. The risk decision determines whether the remote entity comprises, or is controlled by, a malicious attacker.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Amit Somani, Padma Jadav, Raviraj Bhatt, Hemant Arora, Jaipal Singh Kumawat, Ajay Panwar, Sourabh Rajput, Paras Rashmikant Vanjara

Patent number: 11880890Abstract: Siamese neural networks (SNN) are configured to detect differences between financial transactions for multiple financial institutions and transactions for a target party. A first neural network of the SNN tracks transactions (target transactions) for a particular customer or financial institution over time and provides a target output vector. Similarly, a second neural network of the SNN tracks transactions (baseline transactions) for all or a plurality of financial institutions (e.g., within a region) over the same period of time and provides a baseline output vector. The transactions for all or a plurality of financial institutions act as a baseline of transactions against which potentially fraudulent or money laundering activity may be compared. Because Siamese neural networks account for temporal changes based on the baseline of transactions, sudden changes in target transactions will only trigger an alarm if such changes (e.g., deviations or drifts) are relative to a baseline of transactions.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Debasmita Das, Sonali Syngal, Ankur Saraswat, Garima Arora, Nishant Pant, Yatin Katyal

Patent number: 11875347Abstract: A system and computer-implemented method for depersonalizing financial transaction data being switched by a switching service (e.g., an interchange network) between an acquirer and an issuer located in different countries. The acquirer's host sends a personalized transaction to a depersonalization service via an independent communications channel. The service depersonalizes the transaction and sends it back to the acquirer's host, and also sends a reverse depersonalization dictionary to the issuer's host. The acquirer's host sends the depersonalized transaction to the acquirer's interface, which sends it via the switching service to the issuer's interface, which sends it to the issuer's host. The issuer's host uses the dictionary to repersonalize the transaction, processes the repersonalized transaction, and sends a response code to the acquirer's host.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Mastercard International IncorporatedInventor: Mikhail Veltishchev
