Publication number: 20230289454Abstract: System and computer implemented method for enabling application level data protection while not requiring application code changes, thereby keeping data persistently protected while at rest, in transit, and when in use in certain cases. A computer implemented method for securing data comprises pre-defining a plurality of data protection policies for securing application level data stored in a plurality of software modules, deploying a first local parameter and a second local parameter in the application layer of a first software module and second software module respectively, configuring the first local parameter to selectively intercept and encrypt the application level data before the application level data leaves the application layer of the first software module and configuring a second local parameter to access the plurality of data protection policies and to selectively intercept and decrypt the encrypted application level data received by the second software module from the first software module.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Inventor: Siddhartha Dutta

Patent number: 11244064Abstract: A system and method of data protection that provides the security of field level data protection with the ease of implementation and transparency of system level data protection at various layers is disclosed. The system utilizes blockchain technology to implement improved data protection. A smart contract application is deployed among all devices covered by the data protection system. Ledgers are similarly deployed either on each device or on dedicated ledger nodes to provide a record of all transactions occurring with the protected data. As a device writes data to a storage medium or initiates transmission of the data over a communication medium, the smart contract intercepts the data and applies a desired protection protocol to the data. As a result, enterprise wide security may be deployed that provides field level encryption without requiring modifications to existing applications or development of custom applications.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2019Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc.Inventor: Siddhartha Dutta

Patent number: 9866694Abstract: A system may provide state awareness across communication channels and statefully transition a user between a source channel and a destination channel. A method may include storing a unique identifier associated with the user and data associated with the user, retrieving the data associated with the user based upon the user identifier and in response to the user entering the destination channel that is different from the source channel, and populating the data associated with the user in the destination channel. The destination channel may include a display of a customer service representative, and the populating may occur automatically. Furthermore, the method may include placing a call to a telephone number associated with the user in response to at least one of: the user answering a requisite number of questions in the source channel and the user requesting a transition to a voice destination channel.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2016Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: III Holdings 1, LLCInventor: Siddhartha Dutta
