  • Publication number: 20240323185
    Abstract: An electronic device for secure onboarding of users and organizations on a mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) platform is disclosed. A set of onboarding agreements is received from nodes of a MaaS network. A set of service and agreement templates are generated to create a MaaS node group corresponding to the set of nodes. The set of onboarding agreements and the set of service and agreement templates are transmitted to the MaaS node group. An onboarding request is received from a first node of the MaaS network. A decentralized identity (DID) of the first node is verified. A set of parameters and a service agreement associated with the first node is transmitted to the first node. The service agreement is transmitted to the MaaS node group. An Application Programming Interface (API) key of a data hub is generated for the MaaS network to onboard the first node to the MaaS node group.

  • Patent number: 11966400
    Abstract: A system, including a plurality of node packages, an aggregator database node, and an archival database node, is provided. Each node package includes a subscriber node, an MP node, and a MaaS node. A first MaaS node selects a first set of transaction records from the first MaaS node based on a first data retention threshold and a first storage duration, and transmits the first set of transaction records to the aggregator database node for storage. The first MaaS node further controls a selection of a second set of transaction records from a third set of transaction records stored on the aggregator database node and controls a transmission of the second set of transaction records to the archival database node for storage. The selection of the second set of transaction records is based on a second data retention threshold and a second storage duration.

  • Publication number: 20230419315
    Abstract: A system and method for data provisioning using non-fungible tokens (NFTs) is disclosed. The system stores a dataset associated with a data owner and receives a purchase request from an account of a data user for an NFT that represents the dataset on a ledger. The system updates ownership information of the NFT to include the data user based on whether the purchase request satisfies terms associated with a sale of the NFT. The system receives an access request for the dataset and validates the request based on the ownership information and whether the access request satisfies access rules for the dataset and terms associated with usage of the dataset. The system serves a copy of the dataset to an analytics system based on the validation and determines a consumption pattern of the copy. The system controls access to the copy on the analytics system based on the consumption pattern.

  • Patent number: 11551216
    Abstract: A system and method for implementation of transaction security on a distributed ledger-based Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) platform is provided. The system includes a message broker device which receives a transaction request associated with a transport service from a publisher node of a transportation provider. The message broker device routes, via an API gateway hosted on the message broker device, the transaction request to a subscriber node of the transportation provider. The API gateway validates the transaction request based on application of a set of security rules on the transaction request. The subscriber node is associated with a first node of a distributed ledger node that stores a first state object. The first state object includes transaction data associated with the transport service. The distributed ledger node receives the validated first transaction request from the API gateway, via the subscriber node and updates the transaction data based on the received transaction request.

  • Patent number: 11488159
    Abstract: A system for determination of a revenue share of a mobility player (MP) of a MaaS network is disclosed. An MP node of the MP is on-boarded to a node package of the MaaS network and gets associated with a MaaS node of the node package, based on an on-boarding process. The on-boarding process includes a definition of a service structure including configuration data of the MP and a signing off of the MP node to a service agreement and a privacy policy associated with the MaaS network based on terms of service of the service agreement. Once, the MP node is on-boarded to the node package, the MaaS node and/or one or more external nodes, such as, a plurality of aggregator nodes and a central MaaS node may determine a revenue share of the MP based on receipt of a trigger event associated with the node package.

  • Publication number: 20220343319
    Abstract: A hybrid authentication system, method, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for single-sign-on (SSO) authentication via multiple authentication options is provided. The hybrid authentication system includes control circuitry communicatively coupled to a web application server and a public ledger. The control circuitry receives a request from the web application server to access secure content on a resource server and controls display of a set of user-selectable options on a user interface of a user device based on the received request. The control circuitry selects as an authentication scheme one of the web-based authentication scheme and the wallet-based authentication scheme and further controls authentication of the request based on the selected authentication scheme. The selection of the authentication is based on defined security criteria or a user input via one of the displayed set of user-selectable options.
