Abstract: The disclosure describes an apparatus having programmed instructions that when executed cause the apparatus to receive, via a communication network, information regarding suspicious fraud activity at a first location involving a plurality of transaction cards; monitor changes over a first time interval to received information regarding suspicious fraud activity at the first location; and identify a point-of-compromise (POC) location based on monitored changes surpassing a threshold indicating suspicious fraud activity at the first location over the first time interval.

Abstract: A system and method include receiving, by an authentication system, device data of a computing device used by a customer during a checkout process of a current transaction on a merchant website and contextual data of the customer. The system and method also include retrieving a customer token associated with a payment instrument of the customer, assigning the computing device a device score and the customer a customer score based on the device data and the contextual data, and computing an overall score from the device score and the customer score. The system and method further include determining from the overall score that the current transaction is not fraudulent before the current transaction is completed and auto-filling payment information of the payment instrument in the customer token during the checkout process of the merchant website to complete the current transaction upon determining that the current transaction is not fraudulent.

Abstract: The disclosure describes an apparatus having programmed instructions that when executed cause the apparatus to receive, via a communication network, a paper check image and payer information captured by an application at a device associated with a checking account holder; build an image file using the received paper check image and payer information; send the built image file to a payee financial institution server using the received payer information; and transmit payment confirmation to the device associated with the checking account holder.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method, a system, and a non-transitory computer readable medium for identifying data entries associated with an entity. A first rule is applied on a plurality of data entries associated with a plurality of entities to obtain a first set of data entries from the plurality of data entries. Each data entry includes corresponding attributes. The first rule is to search for data entries with a first group of attributes. A second rule is applied on the plurality of data entries associated with a plurality of entities to obtain a second set of data entries from the plurality of data entries. The second rule is to search for data entries with a second group of attributes. A third set of data entries associated with a single entity is obtained based on the first set of data entries and the second set of data entries.
