  • Patent number: 11631013
    Abstract: An actionable alert platform is provided. The platform may utilize artificial intelligence (“AI”) to formulate alert triggers that inform a user regarding unusual activity associated with a target transaction. The platform allows a user to enter customized criteria for an alert trigger and actionable responses for remediating the detected alert trigger. In response to detecting an alert trigger, the platform may formulate and transmit push notifications to a mobile device of user. The user may implement the actionable response directly from within the push notification. The platform may also provide push notifications to the user that advise on a status of the target transaction after applying the actionable response. An AI engine may generate additional alert triggers based on the criteria entered by the user. The AI engine may generate the actionable responses for any alert trigger.

  • Publication number: 20220014526
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for generating secure electronic document authentication are provided. Authentication may include formulating “electronic signatures” or any other validation of electronic information. Apparatus and methods may include capturing a target biometric feature to authenticate the electronic information. The target biometric feature may include a combination or sequence of biometric features. In some embodiments, the target biometric feature may be captured without specially prompting a user to submit a biometric feature. A captured target biometric feature may be augmented by generation of a one-time-password using a token stored locally on a mobile device. Authentication processes described herein provide more secure, accurate authentication for electronic information.

  • Patent number: 10944742
    Abstract: A secure storage apparatus on a mobile device for securing user-access to a mobile application is provided. The secure storage may include, an electronic representation of a mobile token pin selected and inputted when authenticating a user for a first time and an OTP seed, stored in the secure storage. The secure storage may be a secure portion of memory on the mobile device only accessible and visible to the mobile application upon receipt of the mobile token pin. When the mobile token pin is inputted into the mobile application on the mobile device, the mobile application may be configured to transmit the mobile token pin to an authentication server for verification. In response to the verification, the OTP seed may be released from the secure storage and activate an OTP application associated with the mobile application to generate, transparent to the user, an OTP.
