Abstract: Deploying an authentication seal in a digital voting network system. A method includes creating, at a voting authentication server, a digital voting ballot based on submittal of ballot choice selections from a voting agent associated with a voting agent signing key and a voting agent verification key, the digital voting ballot created based on an identifier (R-ID) and a record hash (R-HSH) of a voter data record associated with the voting agent, the R-ID uniquely associated with the voter data record, associating the R-ID, the R-HSH and a voting agent signature with a unique identifier (B-ID) of a location within an immutable storage medium, the voting agent signature based on the signing key and the verification key, generating an authentication seal based upon the R-ID, the R-HSH and the B-ID, and transmitting, to the immutable storage medium, the authentication seal in unique association with the digital voting ballot.

Abstract: The computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a memory of an authentication agent server computing device, a currency artifact submittal from a payor agent having an associated payor agent signing key and a payor agent verification key, the currency artifact submittal including at least an identifier (R-ID) and a record hash (R-HSH) of the currency data record, the R-ID being uniquely associated with the currency data record; associating at least one of the currency data record, the R-ID, the R-HSH and a payor agent signature with a unique identifier (B-ID) of a location within an immutable storage medium, the payor agent signature based on the payor agent signing key and the payor agent verification key; and transmitting, to the payor agent, an authentication seal in unique association with the currency data record, the authentication seal being generated based at least in part upon the R-ID, the R-HSH and the B-ID.

Abstract: Computer-implemented method and system of transacting a digital payment instrument deploying an authentication seal.

Abstract: Computer-implemented method and system of generating an authentication seal. The method includes receiving, at a memory of an authentication agent server computing device, a data record submittal from a client agent having an associated client signing key and a client verification key, the data record submittal including a data record and a record hash (R-HSH) of the data record, associating, using one or more processors, the R-HSH and a client signature associated with the client agent with a unique identifier (B-ID) of a location within an immutable storage medium, the client signature based at least on a client signing key associated with the client agent, generating, using the one or more processors, an authentication seal based at least in part upon at least the R-HSH and the B-ID, and receiving an audit request in verification of the authentication seal in association with the data record.

Abstract: Computer-implemented method and system of generating an authentication seal. The method includes receiving, at a memory of an authentication agent server computing device, a data record submittal from a client agent having an associated client signing key and a client verification key, the data record submittal including at least an identifier (R-ID) and at least one of a data record and a record hash (R-HSH) of the data record, the R-ID being uniquely associated with the data record; associating, using the one or more processors, the at least one of the data record, the R-ID, the R-HSH and a client signature with a unique identifier (B-ID) of a location within an immutable storage medium, the client signature based on at least one of the client signing key and the client verification key; and generating, using the one or more processors, an authentication seal based at least in part upon the at least one of the data record and the R-ID, the R-HSH and the B-ID.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems that allow random music play, and random selection of other media files, using a non-uniform probability distribution. The likelihood that a particular song, piece, or media file will be played or presented in the future is increased or decreased according to positive and negative user behaviors noted with respect to previous plays of the same media file, such as how long the user listens to or views a song, piece, or file; whether the user manually selects a song, piece, or file for play or presentation; and whether the user “skips” a song while it is being played, or otherwise actively chooses not to listen to a song.
