  • Patent number: 11922398
    Abstract: Delegated administration of permissions using a contactless card. In one example, a permissions module may receive a request from a first account to grant a second account access to a computing resource. The permissions module may receive permissions data of the first account from a contactless card and encrypted data generated by the contactless card. The permissions module may transmit the permissions data and the encrypted data to an authentication server, which may verify the encrypted data based at least in part on the private key, and determine, based on the permissions data, that the first account has permissions to grant access to the computing resource. The permissions module may receive, from the authentication server, an indication of the verification of the encrypted data and a permissions vector associated with the second account, the permissions vector reflecting the grant of access to the computing resource to the second account.

  • Publication number: 20240054493
    Abstract: Logic may provide enforce a rate limit for product offers and generate a product token associated for product authentication. Logic may determine a rate limit associated with the product based on an identity of the consumer in a cryptogram for a transaction. Logic may compare the rate limit with a quantity of purchases of the product with a payment instrument provided for payment for the transaction, the rate limit to limit purchases of the product via the payment instrument or by the consumer associated with the payment instrument. Logic may approve the transaction based on comparison of the rate limit in response to the rate limit being greater than purchases of the product. Logic may create a product token via the cryptogram, the product token encoded via the cryptogram, the product token to uniquely identify the product and logic may cause transmission of the product token to the consumer.

  • Patent number: 11887103
    Abstract: In a method for broadcasting account provisioning information, user datum encryption information is transmitted to a plurality of account processing systems. A request to share account provisioning information is received from a user device associated with an account holder. A user datum of the account holder is encrypted using the encryption information and transmitted to the account processing systems. A response is received from at least one of the account processing systems, the response including an indication that the account holder has a transaction account processed by that account processing system. A request for confirmation that the account provisioning information should be shared is sent to the user device and a confirmation response is received from the user device that includes permission to share account provisioning information. Account provisioning information is then transmitted to one or more of the account processing systems.

  • Publication number: 20240022582
    Abstract: A computing system may obtain text corresponding to a conversation between an outside caller and an agent. The computing system may obtain data associated with the conversation that may be used to determine whether the outside caller is attempting malicious activity or not. The obtained text and data may be provided to a machine learning model to generate a probability score indicative of whether the outside caller is attempting to obtain unauthorized access or attempting other malicious activity. Based on determining that the probability score satisfies a threshold, the computing system may modify a permission (e.g., an API permission) of the agent. The computing system may deny the request to perform the action and may cause display of an indication that the request was successful.
