Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes registering a user device and an internet-of-things (IOT) device for use in a transaction-by-proxy service; collecting behavior-related data associated with a user of the user device and the first IOT device; and using the behavior-related data as part of the transaction-by-proxy service to generate a transaction-by-proxy at the IOT device on behalf of the user of the user device. The computer-implemented method further includes generating a transaction-by-proxy model using the behavior-related data associated with the user and training the transaction-by-proxy model to determine whether to request the transaction-by-proxy.

Abstract: A task identification, an operator key, and a supervisor key are generated. The task identification is associated with a system administration task request and can include information from the request to initiate the system administration task request such as the system name. The operator key and the supervisor key are encrypted. Via a secure network, the task identification and the operator key are sent to an operator computing device and the supervisor key is sent to a supervisor computing device. In response to determining that the task identification is valid, the operator key returned from the operator computing device is decrypted. In response to determining that the decrypted operator key is valid, the encrypted supervisor key returned from the supervisor computing device is decrypted. In response to determining that the decrypted supervisor key is valid, an indication of a successful validation of the system administration task is provided.
