  • Publication number: 20220012708
    Abstract: A method of operating a distributed peer to peer analytics system of a permissioned distributed ledger is provided. The system includes a plurality of node computing devices in operable communication with each other over an electronic network. The method includes capturing, by a merchant computing device, sales data from a payment transaction, storing the captured sales data in a database of a first node, compiling within the first node the stored sales data into a transaction envelope, encrypting the transaction envelope with a private key of the first node, submitting, by the first node, the encrypted envelope to the permissioned distributed ledger, verifying, by a second node, the submitted encrypted envelope and adding the compiled sales data to a data block, committing, by the second node, the data block to the distributed ledger, and validating, by a consensus of the plurality of node computing devices, the committed data block.

  • Patent number: 10673831
    Abstract: A security control (SC) system including one or more security control (SC) computing devices for automating security controls between computer networks is provided. The SC system is configured to receive a request to access a service including a system identifier that identifies a computer system requesting access to a service controlled by the one or more SC computing devices, build a token request based on the request, and correlate the token request to at least one security policy associated with the system identifier. The SC system is also configured to generate an access token in response to the token request, wherein the access token is included in an authorization request, and invoke the service using the authorization request. The SC system is further configured to validate the access token using the at least one security policy and authorize access to the service based on the at least one security policy.
