Abstract: Systems and methods include registering use of a virtual certification number (VCN) at a secure entity by receiving, at an external gateway, a registration request comprising an external request code and a primary account number (PAN), wherein the external request code is unique to the secure entity, determining that the external request code is an unregistered external request code, receiving a tokenized PAN based on the PAN, receiving an account identifier by applying the tokenized PAN to a certification mechanism tool application programing interface (API), generating a certification mechanism reference identifier by encrypting a certification mechanism associated with the account identifier and the tokenized PAN, updating a database to associate the certification mechanism reference identifier with the external request code, and transmitting, via the external gateway, a registration authentication to an external entity, the registration authentication comprising the external request code.

Abstract: Architecture and methods may be provided to enable a user to authenticate and complete a cardless transaction at a point-of-sale (“POS”) device. The POS device may include a keypad configured to receive a sequence of keypresses. The POS device may also include a processor configured to record the sequence of keypresses and tag each keypress with a time-stamp. The POS device may include a keypress controller configured to determine from the sequence of keypresses, a number of keypresses, a frequency of each keypress and a time-delay between each keypresss. The sequence of keypresses may be transmitted to a secure transaction network and, using a machine-learning pattern identifier, be configured to identify a pattern to the sequence of keypresses based off of the determined number of keypresses, the frequency and time-delay and then further verify that the pattern matches to a stored pattern to authenticate the cardless transaction.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a cryptocurrency securing system and a cryptocurrency securing method thereof. The system receives a cryptocurrency transaction information from a user device, and determines whether a policy data corresponding to the cryptocurrency transaction information is legal. When the policy data corresponding to the cryptocurrency transaction information is legal, the system derives a cryptocurrency private key information via a personal identification number of the user device. The system then encrypts the cryptocurrency transaction information via the cryptocurrency private key information for deriving an encrypted cryptocurrency transaction information, and broadcasts the encrypted cryptocurrency transaction information to a blockchain network.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to techniques for ensuring that a negotiable instrument has not been altered between the time the instrument leaves the hands of the payor and when the check is presented for redemption by the payee by recording an image of the check in a data block in a blockchain and retrieving the image when the check is presented for redemption for comparison with the check. A match between the stored image and the check indicates that no alteration of the check has occurred.

Abstract: A server computing device receives a first transaction request comprising computer-readable content and metadata for the content. The server computing device generates a first hash based upon the metadata. The server computing device then generates a second hash based upon the first hash and a content identifier that has been generated for the content. The server computing device causes a block to be added to a blockchain, the block comprising the second hash, wherein a transaction identifier is produced as a result of the addition of the block. The server computing device receives, from a second computing device, a second transaction request that comprises an identifier for the computer-readable content. The server computing device provides the second computing device with access to the content based upon the identifier for the content, the block in the blockchain, and the transaction identifier.

Abstract: A consensus method for a blockchain based on a Byzantine fault tolerance algorithm, includes: initiating, by a first consensus node of a consortium blockchain, a consensus proposal comprising a first proposal digest generated based on a first last block hash maintained by the first consensus node; in response to the consensus proposal, generating, by a second consensus node of the consortium blockchain, a second proposal digest based on a second last block hash maintained by the second consensus node; and not participating in, by the second consensus node, a consensus on the consensus proposal if it is detected that the first proposal digest does not match the second proposal digest.

Abstract: Methods and systems related to authoring and acquiring digital rights management (DRM) licenses are disclosed. For example, a computing device may generate or author a digital rights management license for a content asset that includes one or more usage restriction rules.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating contactless payment using cloud-based wallet containing payment credentials (e.g. Visa, Mastercard, American Express) using a near field communication (NFC)-capable device and payment gateway servers. A user can use their existing payment card, herein referred to as a funding card, for contactless payments. A second payment card, herein referred to as a virtual card, is generated. The virtual card is associated with the funding card on a payment gateway server. The virtual card is used on a NFC-enabled mobile device. When a payment is initiated, the virtual card data is sent through the NFC system from a point of sale terminal. This information is sent to the payment gateway server, which retrieves the funding card to make the payment. The funding card, not the virtual card, is used to transfer the money to make payment.
