  • Patent number: 11935055
    Abstract: An Automated Teller Machine (ATM) terminal receives a transaction request from a user. The ATM terminal triggers a camera to capture a first image of the authentication media item presented by the user, where the first image of the authentication media item is embedded with a first unique code. The ATM terminal compares the first image of the authentication media item with a second image of the authentication media item that is associated with the user, where the second image of the authentication media item is embedded with a second unique code for verifying the user. The ATM terminal determines whether the first unique code corresponds to the second unique code. The ATM terminal conducts the transaction request if it is determined that the first unique code corresponds to the second unique code.

  • Patent number: 11880472
    Abstract: Modified data records, including mock data, are generated and disseminated in response to determining that a data breach has occurred resulting in the data records being released or otherwise made available at an Internet website. The modified data records are posted or otherwise made available at the same Internet site at which the original data records are posted or otherwise are available. The modified data records are made to be more enticing to a would-be acquirer of the data than the original data records by containing significantly more records than the original data records and/or be offered to the would-be acquirer at better terms.

  • Patent number: 11784819
    Abstract: Dynamic segmentation of network traffic through the use of Pre-Shared Keys (PSKs). Each defined network segment uses a different pre-shared key and a message authentication code (MAC)-signing algorithm to sign data packets with segment-specific MACs. As such, only those computer hosts/nodes that are in the network segment (i.e., have been assigned the same pre-shared key for generating and decoding the MAC signed data packets) are capable or reading the segment's network traffic. By implementing segment-specific MAC signed data packets, the present invention allows for confidential data transmission absent the need to encrypt the actual contents/data being transmitted.

  • Patent number: 11593807
    Abstract: A system for verifying a user operating an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) sends an authentication media item to a user device associated with the user when the ATM receives a transaction request. The system receives, from the ATM, a first image of the authentication media item when the authentication media item is presented to the ATM. The system compares the first image of the authentication media item with a second image of the authentication media item stored in a user profile associated with the user. The system extracts a first unique code from the first image of the authentication media item, and a second unique code from the second image of the authentication media item. The system determines whether the first unique code corresponds to the second unique code. The system approves the transaction request if it is determined that the first unique code corresponds to the second unique code.

  • Patent number: 11568065
    Abstract: A system is provided for securing electronic data by aggregation of distributed electronic database entries. The system may comprise two or more data repositories that may be logically and/or physically separated from one another. Incoming data may be split into multiple parts that may be stored in a distributed manner across the two or more data repositories. Each of the parts of the incoming data may be associated with an identifier and/or a sequence number such that the system, upon receiving a user query for such data, may aggregate the individual parts of the data in the correct sequence. In some embodiments, the system may further use an obfuscation algorithm to apply randomized values to the identifiers and/or sequence numbers and track the operations performed in an obfuscation log. In this way, the system may provide a way to securely store and retrieve data to prevent unauthorized access.

  • Patent number: 11558362
    Abstract: A security system that provides for secure communication from a remote system operating on an unsecure network without the need for encrypting the packets related to the communication. The packets for the communications are sent over the network in clear text, which are readable by any systems on the network, however, only the systems that are authorized are able to determine what packets are the correct packets and what packets are the imitation packets. Moreover, a remote secure network may be utilized such that any system operating on an unsecure network may send packets through the remote secure network in a randomized routing in order to aid in hiding the systems sending and receiving the packets and the relays through which the packets are being sent.
