Abstract: Systems and methods for conducting transactions across financial institutions are presented. More specifically, in one embodiment a financial transaction center may be provided such that transactions may be coordinated and controlled utilizing the financial transaction center. The financial transaction center may determine a financial institution associated received requests and issue requests to financial institutions. By coordinating the fulfillment of transactions between financial institutions through the financial transaction center a level of abstraction may be introduced whereby transactions may be conducted across financial intuitions without knowledge of host systems at the financial institutions or overly compromising the privacy or security of these host systems.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide a behavioral based solution to user identity validation, useful in real-time detection of abnormal activity while a user is engaged in an online transaction with a financial institution. A risk modeling system may run two distinct environments: one to train machine learning algorithms to produce classification objects and another to score user activities in real-time using these classification objects. In both environments, activity data collected on a particular user is mapped to various behavioral models to produce atomic elements that can be scored. Classifiers may be dynamically updated in response to new behavioral activities. Example user activities may include login, transactional, and traverse. In some embodiments, depending upon configurable settings with respect to sensitivity and/or specificity, detection of an abnormal activity or activities may not trigger a flag-and-notify unless an attempt is made to move or transfer money.

Abstract: A degassing and water removal apparatus is used in combination with the testing or replacement of dielectric oil in an RF transmitter. The apparatus comprises at least one ultrasound transducer in vibrational communication with a bulk oil sample held in a tank having a reduced internal air pressure. The tank has fluid connections to the RF transmitter through which oil from the transmitter is drained to the tank and through which the ambient air pressure in the transmitter is reduced. A fluid pump is used to pump the oil from the tank back to the RF transmitter. In a method of using such an apparatus, the RF transmitter is held at reduced internal pressure during the return of oil thereto, so that the oil does not dissolve gases in the atmosphere internal to the RF transmitter.
