Publication number: 20260205478Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for identifying anomalies within streamed event-based time-series data based on retroactively captured data lineage information. For example, the system may receive a request to identify an anomaly associated with a security-event-based time-series. The system may obtain the security-event-based time-series comprising a set of security-alerts further comprising security-alert data. Then the system may store the security-alert data for each security-alert in a database according to a schema. The system may then populate, based on the schema, a set of predefined prompts sections with the security-alert data of the set of security-alerts. The system may then identify the anomaly associated with the security-event-based time-series based on a summary generated by an artificial intelligence model using the set of predefined prompts.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2025Publication date: July 16, 2026Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence DOUGLAS, Timothy E.

Publication number: 20260203086Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and programming for determining network resource code updates in real time while also reducing network resource consumption used to determine performance impacts of the network resource code updates. Updates to code portions may be generated and evaluated in a secure virtual computing space for an event of a sequence of events. If the updates to the code portions satisfy processing conditions, other events from the sequence may be evaluated against the same updates. A retroactive analysis of a portfolio of authorized accounts, each including a respective sequence of events, may be analyzed to determine the impact of the network resource code updates to the portfolio.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2025Publication date: July 16, 2026Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence DOUGLAS, Timothy E.

Patent number: 12665927Abstract: Methods and systems for intercepting convergent data streams. In some aspects, the system may, in response to receiving a first data stream including a plurality of user activities executed by a user, generate a first projected future data stream. The first projected future data stream can include potential future activities for the user. The system may process the first projected future data stream to determine a first cluster to associate with the user. Furthermore, the system may determine whether the first cluster is a type of intervention cluster requiring direction to the user for future activity. In response to determining that the first cluster is a type of intervention cluster, the system may generate a notification to the user including one or more user activities to execute to exit the first cluster. This allows the system to prevent or intercept undesired activities executed by users.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2023Date of Patent: June 23, 2026Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventor: Lawrence Douglas

Patent number: 12489775Abstract: Systems and methods to detect network activity deviations are described. The network activity data can include a set of network activities of a user and can be used to categorize the user into a segment. Deviations in the network activity can be detected based on one or more patterns of previous network activities of the user. For example, a value associated with the network activity can be determined to deviate from an expected value by a threshold value, determined based on the segment. Remediation to prevent the network activity from impacting future activities of the user can be determined based on scores of the network activity's participants, which includes the user. In an example, the network activity can be removed from an account of the user based on the determined remediation.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2025Date of Patent: December 2, 2025Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence Douglas, Robert D.
