Patent number: 11715100Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to electronic systems and computerized methods for verification of transacting parties to process transactions. A payment network server receives details of a transaction fulfilled by an agent and generates a transaction identification plaintext. A first party keyset for the first transacting party and an agent keyset for the agent is identified. The server generates cryptograms and ciphertexts encrypted by the first party keyset and agent keyset and sends the cryptograms to the first transacting party and agent. An encrypted cryptogram contains an encrypted ciphertext which contains a plaintext representing the transaction identification plaintext. The ciphertexts are exchanged between the first transacting party and agent by a computer handshake for decryption. The plaintexts are extracted from the ciphertexts and compared against the transaction identification plaintext for verifying the first transacting party and agent.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Mastercard Asia/Pacific PTE.

Patent number: 11705247Abstract: In an approach to predictive contact tracing, a computer receives a query associated with contact tracing of a person with an infection. A computer retrieves timestamped location data associated with the person over a period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer creates a contact graph associated with the person, where the contact graph depicts one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. A computer retrieves medical data associated with the person and the one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer builds a probabilistic model. A computer runs the probabilistic model to provide a prediction of a probability of infection of the one or more other people over the period of time as a result of being in contact with the person.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2020Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Radu Marinescu, Akihiro Kishimoto
