Abstract: Systems and methods for real-time classification and verification of data using hierarchal state machines are disclosed. According to one embodiment, in an information processing apparatus comprising at least one computer processor, a method for real-time classification and verification of data using at least one hierarchy of individual state machines may include: (1) receiving, from at least one external data source, incoming data to be stored in a data store; (2) reviewing the incoming data to identity a possibility of the incoming data including at least one type of sensitive information; (3) identifying a hierarchy of individual state machines to review the incoming data based on the at least one type of sensitive information; and (4) providing the incoming data to the hierarchy of individual state machines.

Abstract: A client obtains, in response to a request to a server, a response that includes data for fulfillment of the request, a digital signature that can be verified using a digital certificate, and location information that specifies a location where the digital certificate can be obtained. The client uses the location information to access the location and obtains the digital certificate. Using the digital certificate, the client evaluates the digital signature provided in the response to determine whether the digital signature is valid. If the digital signature is valid, the client accepts the data included in the response for fulfillment of the request.

Abstract: A server obtains response data for an asynchronous response to a request from a client. The server generates, in response to obtaining the response data, a digital signature for the response data. The server makes available the response data, the digital signature, and location information that indicates a location from which a digital certificate usable to verify the digital signature can be obtained.
