  • Patent number: 12293363
    Abstract: An automated teller machine (ATM) may include an input component and one or more processors. The input component may be configured to detect multi-factor input associated with an account. The multi-factor input may include at least two of: a sequence of characters input via the input component, a force with which at least one character, of the sequence of characters, is input via the input component, a length of time over which at least one character, of the sequence of characters, is input via the input component, or a combination of at least two characters, of the sequence of characters, that are input concurrently via the input component. The ATM may receive the multi-factor input, validate the multi-factor input in association with the account, and selectively permit or deny access to one or more actions associated with the account based on validating the multi-factor input.

  • Publication number: 20250131413
    Abstract: Aspects provided may allow for an entity to deactivate a virtual card number (VCN). In particular, aspects provide for deactivating VCNs based on a frequency or periodicity of an interaction. After deactivation, the entity may block future charges to the VCN. Further aspects provide for using incoming charge data sent to one or more previous users to train a machine learning model to determine the frequency or periodicity of the interaction. Additional aspects may also provide for including trial length when determining the deactivation date, providing VCN configuration options to a user, and notifying the user based on upcoming and current VCN status changes.

  • Patent number: 12282905
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein generally related to a system and method for authenticating a transfer request. A computing system receives a transfer request from a client device. The computing system determines that the monetary amount specified in the transfer request exceeds a threshold. The computing system identifies an automated teller machine (ATM) based on at least location information associated with a user of the client device. The computing system prompts the user to authenticate the transfer request at the identified ATM by transferring a message to the client device to be displayed thereon. The computing system receives an authentication attempt of the user from the ATM. The computing system compares authentication information in the authentication attempt to personal identification information associated with the user. The computing system determines that the authentication information at least partially matches personal identification information associated with the user.

  • Patent number: 12282922
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may allow for authenticating a user by generating a customized set of authentication questions based on patterns that are automatically detected and extracted from user data. The user data may include transaction data collected over a period of time. By automatically detecting user patterns that correspond to user behavior over a period of time, an authentication system may be able to generate information that is recognizable to an authentic user but difficult to guess or circumvent for any other user.

  • Publication number: 20250124214
    Abstract: A system and method of establishing a communication session is disclosed herein. A computing system receives, from a client device, a content item comprising text-based content. The computing system generates a mark-up version of the content item by identifying one or more characters in the text-based content and a relative location of the one or more characters in the content item. The computing system receives, from the client device, an interrogatory related to the content item. The computing system analyzes the mark-up version of the content item to identify an answer to the interrogatory. The computing system generates a response message comprising the identified answer to the interrogatory. The computing system transmits the response message to the client device.

  • Publication number: 20250124061
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may improve predictions of real-time user intent by generating multi-modal embeddings based on previous user interactions. The previous user interaction data may be received from multiple different modalities. The interaction data may be analyzed and labeled with user intent for each previous user interaction, then sequentially organized. The multi-modal embeddings may be generated by modal-specific encoders and a multi-modal embeddings generator. A trained machine learning model may use, as input, the multi-modal embeddings and personal data to determine real-time user intent at the beginning of an interaction. The multi-modal embeddings may act as a set of unique and specific output vectors that allow a computing device to recognize and correlate synonymous terms and interrelated subjects, usually a difficult task for computing devices, thereby improving the technological process of analyzing, in real-time, user intent.

  • Patent number: 12272144
    Abstract: In some implementations, a compliance monitoring device may detect a trigger event associated with a compliance-based interaction. The compliance-based interaction may be associated with a secure location, a user device of a user, a sensor associated with a secure object, and one or more cameras. The compliance monitoring device may cause the one or more cameras to capture a set of images associated with the compliance-based interaction. The compliance monitoring device may receive the images and may extract image information from the set of images. The compliance monitoring device may receive positioning information associated with the user device and status information associated with the secure object. The compliance monitoring device may analyze at least one of the image information, the positioning information, or the status information to identify a compliance rule violation. The compliance monitoring device may provide an alert indication based on identifying the compliance rule violation.
