  • Publication number: 20150039517
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to purchasing content provided by a cloud-based entertainment platform and to accessing media content provided by a cloud-based entertainment platform. In one scenario, a computer system receives authentication credentials from a user. The computer system authenticates the user to the cloud-based entertainment platform using the received authentication credentials. The computer system then receives payment data from the authenticated user, where the payment data includes a tokenized QR code that contains an indication of the media items being purchased and embedded account information for both the provider of the selected media items and the user. The computer system also processes a payment transaction based on the indication of media items being purchased and the embedded account information in the tokenized QR code and, upon determining that the authenticated user has paid for a media item, transmits the purchased media item to the user.

  • Publication number: 20140236635
    Abstract: Embodiments are provided for securely messaging healthcare entities. In one scenario, a computer system receives an input from a user indicating that a message including text or other characters is to be securely transmitted to a specified healthcare entity. The message is part of a conversation between a user and the specified healthcare entity. The computer system encrypts the characters of the message using at least one encryption algorithm, so that the message is encrypted during the transfer from the user to the specified healthcare entity. The computer system then initiates transmission of the encrypted message such that the encrypted message is sent to the specified healthcare entity. Throughout the process, the encrypted message is transferred in accordance with legal regulations governing healthcare communications.
