Patent number: 11947679Abstract: A method for managing vulnerability data may include: (1) ingesting, by a data ingestion engine, vulnerability data from a plurality of sources; (2) normalizing, by a data normalizer module, the vulnerability data into a plurality of data records; (3) generating, by a data processing module, a dynamic risk score for each data record; (4) storing, by a risk record register, a risk record for each data record, wherein the risk record may include the dynamic risk score, a priority level, an identifier for a software application, and a software dependency; (5) selecting, by a control policy selection engine, a control policy based on one of the dynamic risk scores; (6) implementing, by the risk record register, the selected control policy; (7) monitoring, by the risk record register, implementation of the control policy; and (8) updating, by the risk record register, the control policy selection engine based on the monitoring.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.Inventors: Samiksha Patel, Jessica Colvin, Patrick M.

Publication number: 20240089262Abstract: A system that aggregates client data and cyber indicators to authenticate a client is provided. The system receives a request to access a financial account of the client, and retrieves a client profile. The client profile includes an aggregation of data into a plurality of data indicators. An optimal number of data indicators is determined based on an initial threshold inquiry regarding the request, with the optimal number of data indicators being determined based on a phone requesting the access to the financial account. A risk score is generated based on a weighting for each of the plurality of data indicators included within the optimal number, with the weighting representing a confidence in the accuracy of each of those data indicators. Access to predetermined actions by the client is granted based on the risk score.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.Inventors: Jean-Francois LEGAULT, D.J. KNOEDLER, Neil GORIN, Kevin LISTON

Patent number: 11855994Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system that aggregates client data and cyber indicators to authenticate a client. The system comprises: a computer server comprising at least one computer processor and coupled to the memory, programmed to: receive, via an electronic input, an authorization request from a requester for access to an account; identify a client identifier associated with the authorization request; using the client identifier, retrieve, from the memory, a client profile, wherein the client profile is based on an aggregation of client data, client device data, claims data and cyber data; generate a risk score based on the aggregated combination of the client data, client device data, claims data and cyber data to determine whether the requester is authenticated to access the account; and automatically apply an authentication determination to the authorization request.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.Inventors: Jean-Francois Legault, D.

Patent number: 11809458Abstract: The invention relates to database abstraction and data linkage. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the invention takes a variety of attributes (e.g., names, IP address, device identifiers, addresses, phone numbers, account numbers, etc.) and returns the online activity, demographic data, account data and/or other activity, events and data associated with that attribute. The tool may then iterate over each attribute and return a network of connections having multiple degrees of association. The innovative tool may be linked to known bad actor data, and perform automated searches on this data to proactively alert potentially fraudulent activity. The tool may also be developed to add attributes and apply machine learning to the associations to more intelligently describe the returned network. Further, the tool may be developed to describe larger networks having multiple degrees of connections.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2021Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.Inventors: Robert Pascarella, Neil Gorin, D.
