Patent number: 9253197Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may store a plurality of tokens indicating a user is accessing a resource over a network. The plurality of tokens may include a risk token indicating a risk associated with access by the user to the resource. The apparatus may detect a token indicating a change associated with accessing the resource, and determine that the change triggers a risk update. The apparatus may then generate a dataset token that represents the risk token and the token indicating the change, and communicate the dataset token to a token provider to perform the risk update. The apparatus may then receive a recomputed risk token representing an updated risk. The updated risk may indicate the risk associated with continuing access to the resource with the change.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2011Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Rakesh Radhakrishnan, Cynthia Ann Frick, Radu Marian, Abdulkader Omar Barbir, Rajat P.

Patent number: 9069943Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may store: a hard token representing identification information of the device, a network token representing the status of a network, and a resource token representing information associated with a resource. The apparatus may further store secured copies of the hard token, network token, and resource token. The apparatus may receive a suspect token indicating a risk that at least one of the device, the network, and the resource has been tampered, and in response, determine to inspect at least one of the hard token, network token, and resource token. The apparatus may then compare the at least one of the hard token, network token, and resource token with its corresponding secured copy. If at least one of those tokens does not match its corresponding secured copy, the apparatus may communicate a revalidation token indicating at least one token has been tampered.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Rakesh Radhakrishnan, Cynthia Ann Frick, Radu Marian, Abdulkader Omar Barbir, Rajat P.

Patent number: 9055053Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may store a plurality of tokens. The plurality of tokens may include a plurality of risk tokens. Each risk token may represent a risk rating. The risk rating may be a numerical value indicating a risk associated with granting a particular user access to a particular resource. The apparatus may identify a set of related risk tokens in the plurality of risk tokens, and generate a composite risk token that represents an arithmetic combination of the risk ratings represented by the set of related risk tokens. The apparatus may then use the composite risk token to facilitate the making of an access decision.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Rakesh Radhakrishnan, Cynthia Ann Frick, Radu Marian, Abdulkader Omar Barbir, Rajat P.

Patent number: 8752143Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may monitor a session that facilitates a user's access to a resource. The user may be granted a privilege associated with accessing the resource. The apparatus may detect a change associated with the privilege granted to the user in at least one token of a plurality of tokens. The apparatus may then communicate a token that represents the change, and receive a risk token associated with the token. The apparatus may then determine to revoke the privilege based on the risk token, and generate a second token that represents the determination to revoke the privilege. The apparatus may then communicate the second token to facilitate the revoking of the privilege.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Rakesh Radhakrishnan, Cynthia Ann Frick, Radu Marian, Abdulkader Omar Barbir, Rajat P.

Patent number: 8732814Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may receive a hard token that identifies a device and a subject token indicating that a user is a high priority user. The subject token may include a user identifier associated with the high priority user. The apparatus may apply a token-based rule that facilitates packet prioritization in response to receiving the subject token. In response to applying the token-based rule, the apparatus may communicate a notification token to at least one network component. The notification token may include the user identifier associated with the high priority user, the device identifier associated with the device, and instructions to prioritize any packet communications associated with the user identifier or the device identifier.

Patent number: 8713672Abstract: According to one embodiment, an apparatus may receive a token that indicates a change that occurs during a session. The session may facilitate access to a resource. The token may indicate a risk token should be computed. The apparatus may determine, from the token, a first set of attributes. The first set of attributes may include attributes required to compute the risk token. The apparatus may determine that a cache contains a set of cached attributes. The apparatus may examine an attribute in the set of cached attributes, and determine the attribute in the set of cached attributes is not in the first set of attributes. The apparatus may then remove the attribute in the set of cached attributes from the cache.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2011Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Rakesh Radhakrishnan, Cynthia Ann Frick, Radu Marian, Abdulkader Omar Barbir, Rajat P.
