  • Patent number: 12657587
    Abstract: Systems and methods for preventing fraud using behavioral biometrics may include a server with memory and a processor. The processor may be configured to create a behavioral biometric use-print for a user based on a plurality of observed and recorded user interactions and then monitor one or more behavioral biometrics of the user while the user accesses a user account. These monitored behavioral biometrics may be compared against the behavioral biometric use-print to determine if there are material deviations indicating that the user is under stress. When the server determines that the user is under stress, it may provide an intervention to help safeguard against potential in-process fraud.

  • Publication number: 20260141207
    Abstract: A modular transaction card assembly includes a card frame having the traditional dimensions of a credit card, and a transaction card that is smaller than a traditional card and that fits into a receptacle of the card frame. Each of the card frame and the transaction card may be capable of performing contactless data transactions individually. The combined assembly of the card frame with the transaction card secured in the receptacle is also capable of performing contact data transactions, and in some instances, with an identifier that is distinct from the card frame or the transaction card alone. The card frame may include a processor enabling it to perform data encryption and authentication of the smaller transaction card.

  • Patent number: 12493883
    Abstract: A system includes one or more memory devices storing instructions, and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to perform steps of a method providing biometric detection of coercion of a user. The system may detect a trigger event associated with a potential transfer of funds and may receive user biometric data. The system may determine, based on stored user biometric data and the detected user biometric data, a confidence level that the stored user biometric data is indicative of biological information representative of a user being in a stressed state. The system may initiate one or more precautionary safety measures.

  • Patent number: 12462014
    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and remedying password insecurities are disclosed. The systems and methods include crawling websites to identify popular cultural terms and saving the cultural terms in a backend system. The cultural terms can include names of celebrities, politicians, movies, and the like. An identification system receives a password and compares the received password to the cultural terms using a similarity score. If the number of similarities is above a predetermined threshold, or if the number of differences is below a predetermined threshold, the identification system denies the password. A recommendation system can generate a suggested password, which can also be compared to the cultural terms. The systems and methods also provide the ability to calculate a similarity score if the cultural terms or passwords are saved in an encrypted or hashed format.

Each of the card frame and the transaction card may be capable of performing contactless data transactions individually. In some instances, the combined assembly of the card frame with the transaction card may detect a proximity of a mobile device to the assembly and generate an authentication credential that is unique to the combination of the card frame, the transaction card, and the mobile device. The authentication credential may be used to authentic the transaction card when conducting a data transaction.

  • Patent number: 12333367
    Abstract: A modular transaction card assembly includes a card frame having the traditional dimensions of a credit card, and a transaction card that is smaller than a traditional card and that fits into a receptacle of the card frame. The card frame may include a window in which contact pads of the transaction card are positioned and flush with the surface of the card frame when the transaction card is secured in the receptacle. The card frame and transaction card assembled together may form a uniform assembly that appears and functions as a traditional transaction card (e.g., credit card).

  • Patent number: 12328393
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable virtual tokens for dynamically mapping virtual account numbers to actual accounts. The systems and methods include receiving an electronic data modification instruction of a virtual record modification to cause at least one data modification to at least one attribute of a virtual record data structure associated with the actual account. A user record associated with the virtual record is determined, and a record modification preference associated with the user record is determined based on the modification condition. An authorization instruction is generated to authorize the electronic data modification instruction to cause the modification by instructing at least one database management system to modify the user record according to the record-specific modification.

  • Publication number: 20250094964
    Abstract: Example embodiments of systems and methods for data transmission between a contactless card, a client application, and a server are provided. The memory of the contactless card may include a first card number table storing a first plurality of card numbers, each card number associated with a user account. A first applet may cycle through the first card number table and transmit each of the first plurality of card numbers to a second applet. In response to detection of one or more gestures by the card, the client application may read one or more of the first plurality of card numbers from the second applet and transmit a verification request associated with the one or more read card numbers to the server, which may compare the one or more read card numbers to a number from a second card number table and transmit a verification determination to authenticate the card.

  • Patent number: 12236677
    Abstract: A processing platform may receive a plurality of images. The processing platform may determine respective asset types of the plurality of assets based on a computer vision technique. The processing platform may determine respective estimated values of the plurality of assets based on the respective asset types. The processing platform may provide information identifying the respective estimated values of the plurality of assets to two or more recipients. The processing platform may receive allocation information. The processing platform may determine a selected allocation of the plurality of assets for the two or more recipients based on the allocation information and using a second model. The processing platform may perform one or more actions based on the selected allocation.

  • Patent number: 12141862
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for account status monitoring. The method can include receiving user registration information and account information corresponding to a first user account. The account information can include first user credit information. The method can include analyzing, by a machine learning rules engine, the account information and the user registration information to create a user behavior pattern associated with the first user account. The method can further include determining an anomaly in the user behavior pattern indicative of a life event. Based on the life event and the user registration information, the method can determine a second user account and corresponding account information comprising second user credit information. In response, the method can include predicting, by a convolutional neural network, an effect on the second user credit information resulting from the transfer of the first user credit information to the second user account.

  • Patent number: 12130907
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and device embodiments for implementing password suggestion. An embodiment operates by selecting one or more random terms from dictionary information, generating an alphanumeric string based on a password requirement, combining the one or more random terms and the alphanumeric string to form a generated password, determining a password strength of the generated password based on compromised password information, and presenting the generated password for selection by a user device when the password strength meets or exceeds a threshold value.
