  • Publication number: 20180197182
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing at least one fraud prevention rule associated with a detected fraud condition. An example method includes detecting a fraud condition associated with a source merchant, where the fraud condition includes multiple suspect transactions and where each one of suspect transactions has a parameter that is substantially consistent with the other ones of the suspect transactions. The method also includes identifying a like merchant based on a proximity of the like merchant to the source merchant, and determining a travel time between the source merchant and the like merchant. The method further includes deploying at least one fraud prevention rule at the like merchant during a fraud risk interval, where the at least one fraud prevention rule is based on the parameter of at least one of the suspect transactions and where the fraud risk interval is based on the determined travel time.

  • Patent number: 8625864
    Abstract: A method and system is provided for performing cosmetic analysis of a subject. Assessment data of observable characteristics of each of a plurality of defined body areas of a subject is converted to weighted data for each of the plurality of defined body areas. This weighted data is analyzed to generate cosmetic analysis data. This cosmetic analysis data can include an apparent age of the subject. The cosmetic analysis data is then provided to a user such as a cosmetic surgeon, beauty therapist or the subject themself. The system and method can be further adapted to perform treatment diagnosis for the subject based on the cosmetic analysis data.

  • Publication number: 20070171047
    Abstract: A system and method for obtaining location and status information for a person, animal or object. The system, in its various embodiments can include a distributed computer system having more than one databases, and more than one programmed application sets. The databases and programmed application sets can be distributed across more than one physical data centers through an edge server. The system also can include a status device, having one or more component parts in substantially continuous communication with the distributed computer system. The status device can be worn by the person, animal or object, and can communicate the location and status information to the distributed computer system through a virtual private network. The system can also include a locator device, in communication with the distributed computer system through the virtual private network.
