  • Publication number: 20240095617
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for protecting a device from skill squatting by verifying the legitimacy of a skill to a user before operating the skill based on user instructions. Upon receiving an audio signal from a user to operate a skill on a device, the skill can retrieve unique and non-confidential information related to the user or the device, and further present the unique and non-confidential information to the user such that the information is used to verify the legitimacy of the skill. Upon a verification of the legitimacy of the skill, the user can operate the skill by voice or audio instructions.

  • Publication number: 20240070295
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments pertain to protecting sensitive information. A browser extension associated with a web browser can detect a user entering information associated with the user into an electronic form. The browser extension can monitor the user entering sensitive information into the electronic form and detect that the user has entered sensitive information incorrectly. In response, the browser extension can provide a warning to the user that sensitive information has been incorrectly entered. Instructions can be displayed to a user on how incorrectly entered sensitive information is to be corrected. The incorrectly entered sensitive information is corrected based on a response from the user before the sensitive information propagates beyond the electronic form.

  • Publication number: 20230409182
    Abstract: A device identifies one or more user interface elements, in a user interface, associated with a fixed positioning characteristic and not positioned within another user interface element with the fixed positioning characteristic. The device repositions the one or more user interface elements in the user interface to vacate space for a new user interface element based on a size of the new user interface element and forgo repositioning one or more other user interface elements in the user interface that do not have the fixed positioning characteristic or are positioned within another user interface element with the fixed positioning characteristic. The device inserts the new user interface element into the user interface in a portion of the user interface vacated in connection with repositioning the one or more user interface elements, and provides the user interface for display based on inserting the new user interface element into the user interface.

  • Publication number: 20230401563
    Abstract: Virtual cards are proactively provisioned for online purchases. Merchant transactions or user browser actions can be analyzed for the existence of a trigger condition such as recurrent merchant transactions or registration on a merchant website, among other things. In response to detecting the trigger condition, a request is sent to a customer for permission to add a virtual card for payment of a merchant online. Subsequently, a request is submitted for the virtual card for the customer from a financial institution in response to permission being granted, where the virtual card is linked to an account of the customer at the financial institution. A browser script can next be executed that adds the virtual card as the primary payment method of a website of the merchant.

  • Publication number: 20230289800
    Abstract: A contactless delivery system is provided. The contactless delivery system includes a contactless card storing a cryptogram containing a unique identifier associated with a user account. After entry into a communication field, the contactless card is configured to transmit the cryptogram to a server. Upon receipt of the cryptogram, the server is configured to validate and decrypt the cryptogram, and extract the unique identifier. The server can query a database for an identity of the user account using the unique identifier, generate a digital signature based on the identity of the user account, and transmit a verification notification including the identity of the user account and the digital signature.

  • Patent number: 11636261
    Abstract: A user may view a device with augmented reality glasses which may have a camera that views and collects data on the screen of the user device. When the user desires to access an account for which multifactor authentication is required, a one-time password may be sent to the user. The glasses may recognize the one-time password and determine if the one-time password originated from the user device. If the glasses verify that the one-time password originated from the user based on context of the user device display or the geographic locations of the devices, then the glasses will send the password to the service associated with the one-time password. The glasses may send the password back to the user device, send it to an intermediate server, or send it directly to the server associated with the service that provided the one-time password.

  • Patent number: 11550887
    Abstract: A method and system include receiving, by a processor of a server, from a computing device associated with a user, real-time user activity data identifying at least one activity performed on the computing device. User-inputted data elements from a plurality of elements of a graphical user interface displayed on the computing device are received, which identify user-specific data attributes. Potential user-specific knowledge information is identified from databases based on at least one user-specific data attribute. User-specific challenge questions based on the potential user-specific knowledge information are generated and displayed on the user's computing device. Answers to the user-specific challenge questions by the user are received. An answer score based on correct answers and a behavioral score based the real-time user activity data of the user are determined. The processor determines whether the user is or is not a fraudster based on the answer score and the behavioral score.
