Patent number: 12113801Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for monitoring network security in a mesh network. An example method includes receiving trust of service information relating to a user. The trust of service information includes one or more security details associated with at least one of a user device or a user network associated with the user. The method also includes determining a security level of a session involving the user based on the trust of service information relating to the user. The method further includes determining a security protocol for the session based on the determined security level. The security protocol determines at least one of a user access level or an additional security measure. The method still further includes causing an execution of the session based on the security protocol determined.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Brandon Sloane, Michael Ogrinz, Charles Edward Dudley

Patent number: 11710110Abstract: A system for performing authorization of a user in an augmented reality environment comprises an augmented reality user device, an automatic teller machine, and an authentication server. The automatic teller machine has a keypad with unmarked buttons. The augmented reality user device includes a display configured to overlay virtual objects onto a field of view of a user. The augmented reality user device receives a virtual keypad overlay, which assigns values to the unmarked buttons of the keypad. Using the overlay, the augmented reality user device displays the assigned values on the buttons of the keypad. The automatic teller machine detects an input sequence entered on the keypad and sends the input sequence to the authentication server. The authentication server determines an authentication code by combining the input sequence with the virtual keypad overlay, and compares the determined authentication code with an authentication code stored in a database.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2020Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Amanda J.

Patent number: 11706311Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to cognitive automation-based engine processing to propagate data across multiple systems via a private network to overcome technical system, resource consumption, and architecture limitations. Data to be propagated can be manually input or extracted from a digital file. The data can be parsed by analyzing for correct syntax, normalized into first through sixth normal forms, segmented into packets for efficient data transmission, validated to ensure that the data satisfies defined formats and input criteria, and distributed into a plurality of data stores coupled to the private network, thereby propagating data without repetitive manual entry. The data may also be enriched by, for example, correcting for any errors or linking with other potentially related data. Based on data enrichment, recommendations of additional target(s) for propagation of data can be identified. Reports may also be generated. The cognitive automation may be performed in real-time to expedite processing.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2022Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Michael Ogrinz, Christine D.

Patent number: 11425100Abstract: Typically, a business desires to track and monitor all applications run on its servers. Nonetheless, one or more unauthorized applications may be running on the business's servers, exposing the business to potential regulatory liability and security breaches. Apparatus and methods are provided for isolating and disabling one or more unauthorized applications running on a server. The apparatus may comprise a system including a content-filtering web proxy server configured to filter outgoing requests and data associated with the requests. The system may also include a remediation framework configured to monitor request data in a proxy log stored by the proxy server. The remediation framework may be triggered to perform remedial action when the remediation framework determines that a request and associated data, as stored in the proxy log, meets predetermined conditions. The remediation framework, when triggered, may execute steps to truncate functionality of the unauthorized applications.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Varadharajan Candhadai Ramaswamy, Michael Ogrinz

Patent number: 11381972Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to optimizing authentication and management of wireless devices in zero trust computing environments. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive, from a user computing device, a connection request. Subsequently, the computing platform may generate, using an artificial-intelligence engine, a profile for the connection request. Based on the profile for the connection request generated using the artificial-intelligence engine, the computing platform may determine that the connection request is valid. In response to determining that the connection request is valid, the computing platform may establish a connection with the user computing device. Based on establishing the connection with the user computing device, the computing platform may assign an identity to the user computing device.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Elena Kvochko, Michael Ogrinz, John C.
