  • Patent number: 10775964
    Abstract: An X-Y interaction (XYI) facilitates rapid relationship pairing by creating tap or selection zones that intersect variables. The y-axis contains an indefinite number of variables (items) that can be assigned to x-axis variables (groups). “Items” are individual bits of information or data, like a transaction, song, item, or a to-do task. “Groups” are predefined buckets that apply specific rules or actions or represent specific things or people. Items get assigned to groups, and then the rules are applied to them. Items along the y-axis can be organized based on where along an x-axis a user selects an item. The selection can be by tapping, and one item can be selected for multiple groups.

  • Patent number: 10348758
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method for providing interfaces for visualizing threats within networked control systems may include (i) receiving a request to provide a graphical interface to visualize a networked control system with multiple components, (ii) identifying within the networked control system a potential security threat involving a potentially compromised component of the networked control system, and (iii) providing the graphical interface by (a) ordering the components according to a control hierarchy, (b) portraying each component within a circular area by arranging the components according to the control hierarchy and according to domains within the networked control system such that each component falling within a given domain is placed within a corresponding arc of the circular area, and (c) highlighting, within the graphical interface, an area within an arc of the circular area containing the potentially compromised component.

  • Publication number: 20130262281
    Abstract: A payment provider receives, from a user device, a request to process a dispute with a merchant for a purchase transaction, selection of an e-receipt for the disputed transaction, selections of items on the e-receipt to be disputed, and a dispute reason for each disputed item. The e-receipt may be provided either by the payment provider for the user's selection or by the user. The payment provider determines, from the e-receipt selected, information on the merchant, a description and an amount of purchase for each disputed item, and prepopulates the description and amount of purchase for each disputed item when the user requests the dispute processing. Utilizing the merchant information, and the description, the amount of purchase and the dispute reason for each disputed item, the payment provider processes the dispute with the merchant. The payment provider may inform the user of the status of the dispute processing.
