Abstract: Systems and methods may be provided for masking data on public networks, such as social networking sites. At a publishing node, the system may monitor data input fields in a webpage, and intercept and encode content, such as text, images, and video input at the data input fields, prior to the content being posted online on a public service provider's website. A privacy agent may process input field content to try to detect encoding markers in the input field content, which define portions of the content that are to be encoded. A third party key server may be used to store decoding keys. A URI reference to the decoding key may be used to access the decoding key by a node attempting to view the decoded version of the input field content.

Abstract: A system and corresponding method gather information about browsing and purchasing behavior of web users to avoid tracking information associated with individual web browser instances. The system enables collection of historical and statistical information by legitimate interested parties to be severed from information about the behavior of a browser instance, and so too from information about the user of the browser instance. The system is configured to perform at least one of: (i) masking a web browser cookie to prevent use of the cookie to access browsing information related to a user and (ii) replace stories about sequences of browser behaviors with statistics about abstracted “story types.” A story type is a sequence of behavior types common to all web browser instances which have performed that sequence. An example embodiment uses masking and aggregation techniques, frequently, and includes a variety of industry standard security measures specially adapted to these purposes.

Abstract: Online retailers and advertisers typically attempt to glean information about a potential customer from his or her web browser click history. However, relying on only a potential customer's click history is not an effective means for tailoring and personalizing web content for the user in the moment of customer interaction with the web content. Obtaining information about the user's engagement with web content is critical to successful personalization of web content in real-time. The present invention provides solutions for monitoring, tracking and calculating user engagement with web content that enables successful personalization of web content in the moment of interaction.

Abstract: Systems and methods mask data on public networks, such as social networking sites. At a publishing node, the system monitors data input fields in a webpage that are processed by an internet browser. The system intercepts data, such as text, images, and video input at the data input fields, prior to the data being posted online on a public service provider's website. The publishing node controls which users are permitted access to the posted data by defining a policy associated with the data input field. The posted data is transformed or tokenized to ensure that it is inaccessible to a user (or group of users) unless that user/group is granted access to the decoding key under the policy. Data security and data control is provided to a publishing user node. Data that has already been posted may be destroyed, for example, by deleting the decryption key or a token.

Abstract: A system using multi-signature wallets and blockchain keys to enable the creation of a company root identity that matches the documented corporate governance models recorded in the articles of incorporation. The registration of the public root identity key with the corporate registrar of record by filing a Doing Business As registration with the registrar using the Public key as the company name. The system supports multiple execution models to enable the binding of the corporate identity root to the existing digital systems using Cryptography to provide the forensic digital proof the process was permissioned by and bound to the corporate root-of-identity. A system that automatically validates the Chain of control back to the root assuring a relying party the transaction was authorized by the corporation and its policies.

Abstract: An AI verification system using existing capabilities provided by trusted computing and blockchain technology. The AI verification system can be optimized to assure that input from a client system sent to an AI system to make a request is not tampered with in creation or transmission. The response from the AI system is processed by the AI verification system to ensure that it is secure for delivery and presentation back to the client including the cyber assurance data collected from the operating environment of the AI system. The AI verification system can produce sufficient forensic data to assure a response from AI systems and services is trusted and verified. The AI verification system may be encapsulated in and implemented as an AI verification embedded microcontroller.

Abstract: Device identification scoring systems and methods may be provided that can increase the reliability and security of communications between devices and service providers. Users may select and configure additional identification factors that are unique and convenient for them. These factors, along with additional environmental variables, feed into a trust score computation that weights the trustworthiness of the device context requesting communication with a service provider. Service providers rely on the trust score rather than enforce a specific identification routine themselves. A combination of identification factors selected by the user can be aggregated together to produce a trust score high enough to gain access to a given online service provider. A threshold of identification risk may be required to access a service or account provided by the online service provider.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating geographic data for map elements based on surfel data and motion data associated with a geographic region are disclosed. A computing system can obtain motion data indicative of movement of at least one object in a geographic region represented by a map. The computing system can additionally obtain surfel data indicative of one or more surface elements associated with a surface of a structure in the geographic region represented by the map. The computing system can identify an entrance of the structure based at least in part on a correlation of the surfel data and the motion data. The computing system can generate geographic data indicative of a geographic location of the entrance of the structure.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to methods and systems for determining the identity of a user as a person or a robot. In some embodiments, the methods and systems engage a web browser to produce a token and calculate a computation cost associated with the token production. The methods and systems use the computation cost to prove that the web browser on a device not handicapped by the computational challenge of producing tokens, which would handicap a robot. In some embodiments, the methods and systems generate a cookie based on a confirmed user purchase, and record the user identity contained in the cookie at a block chain to identify the user as a verified purchaser. The methods and systems may later retrieve the cookie and search the block chain using the user identity contained in the cookie. By locating the user identity in the block chain, the methods and systems know that the user is a verified purchaser, indicating the user to be a person, as robots cannot make purchases.
