Abstract: Examples provide consumer identity validation (CIV) via last used payment card, improving management of payment infrastructure resources. Examples enable the consumer to more efficiently complete CIV via at least one of a last used account or a last used card. By not requiring consumers to repeatedly go through the entire CIV process at each transaction at the same merchant when using the exact same card they used on a previous visit, excessive and unnecessary strain on the infrastructure is reduced, preventing degradation of the infrastructure. This enables allocating fewer computing resources to CIV, making deployments utilizing low-power or otherwise constrained equipment simpler and easier to maintain. Thus, scaling is enhanced. Individual CIV performance is more efficient, and less computing resources and energy are required across the entire infrastructure.

Abstract: A media system includes a plurality of set-top boxes coupled to a coax network and a controller. The controller displays a first passkey to a user in response to receiving a request from the user to activate playback of a media content on a particular set-top box. The set-top box receives the first passkey from the user and determines whether the user is authorized to activate playback of the media content by comparing the first passkey received from the user with a second passkey obtained from a passkey module on the set-top box. When the user is determined by the set-top box to be authorized to activate playback of the media content, the set-top box determines a radio frequency channel of the coax network according to the first passkey received from the user and begins playback of the media content received on the radio frequency channel on a display device.

Abstract: A media system includes a computer network, a media device supporting a network-based media sharing protocol, a plurality of output devices located at a plurality of physical locations within a hospitality establishment, and a system controller. In response to a first event, the system controller assigns the media device to a particular guest device by reconfiguring one or more components of the computer network to enable the particular guest device to utilize the network-based media sharing protocol to share media over the computer network with the media device, and commands an output device located at a physical location associated with the particular guest device to play media corresponding to the media signal outputted by the media device on the output port. In response to a second event, the system controller un-assigns the media device from the particular guest device and commands the output device to stop playing the media.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in implementing a common domain to provide recognition of users. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving a recognition token associated with a profile and setting, via a browser accessing a common domain, a cookie in the browser where the cookie includes a recognition token. The method also includes, in response to a request for a service, via a user, through the browser accessing an entity domain associated with an entity, accessing the common domain and accessing, via the browser accessing the common domain, the cookie and submitting the cookie to a common domain server. The method further includes receiving, from the common domain server, a federated ID token associated with the recognition token for the service and retrieving, via the browser, the profile associated with the user based on the federated ID token.

Abstract: Some embodiments may provide systems, methods and computer program code to facilitate a secure remote transaction and may include detecting an event identifying initiation of a checkout process involving a transaction between a consumer and a merchant, identifying a secure remote commerce system to use in facilitating the transaction, the secure remote commerce system storing a consumer profile including information identifying at least a first payment card of the consumer. In some embodiments, a checkout user interface displayed to the consumer is modified based on information from the consumer profile to display information associated with the at least one payment card. A checkout request from the consumer and a payload is obtained from the secure remote commerce system including information identifying the at least first payment card, the merchant and transaction details. The payload is used to complete a transaction authorization request with a payment network.
