  • Patent number: 11948213
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to sequencing of asset segments of privacy policies. The asset segments are sequenced based on a set of constraints. In an embodiment the asset segments are sequenced using a set of pre-defined predecessors and a set of pre-defined successors of each asset segment through a feasible sequence generation technique and a sequence generation technique based on the constraints, wherein the constraints are preferences associated with the source entity and the target entity. Hence the disclosure bridges a communication gap between the source entity and the target entity by optimally displaying the most relevant privacy policy (mapped to the asset segments) based on the constraints associated with the source entity and the target entity. Further the disclosed system also determines a violation factor that represents a conflict between the preferences associated with the source entity and the target entity.

  • Patent number: 11816706
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for intelligent interface displays based on past data correlations. A service provider and/or entity may implement a machine learning engine to dynamically adjust data displayed in interface elements of an interface provided by the service provider or entity. The data may correspond to an amount for a voluntary payment to the entity by a user and may be based on correlating and processing past user transactions and received entity payments. Weights may be applied to the data to determine median, average, and/or quartile amounts based on goals set by the user, events occurring at the time of the voluntary payment, and/or time of year. Once the machine learning engine determines one or more amounts specific to the user's payment to the entity, the engine may adjust or output the interface having the user specific data for processing.

  • Patent number: 11810130
    Abstract: Requests to perform activity with respect to a customer account can be monitored to attempt to detect fraudulent activity due to compromised customer credentials or other unauthorized access. The unauthorized party can request actions such as to create a new account, mount a snapshot of customer data, and exfiltrate the customer data. Various embodiments monitor such requests and permissions granted to accounts not directly owned by a customer, and can apply automatic mitigations for suspicious activity in order to reduce the risk of exposing data to unauthorized accounts. Such an offering determines mitigations to perform, such as to block, alert, rate limit, or terminate the linked or non-linked account based on account reputation. The detection mechanism can use various heuristics to make mitigation decisions, as may consider factors such as account age, geolocation, access history, device fingerprint, network domain, payment type, prior suspicious activity, and the like.
