Abstract: In various exemplary embodiments, a system and associated method to perform an adaptive risk-based assessment of a user is disclosed. A method includes receiving a request from a user to perform an action at an electronic marketplace, retrieving a plurality of risk assessment factors associated with the action and the user, performing a risk assessment process on the risk assessment factors to identify a risk mitigation process, requesting that the user perform the identified risk mitigation process, and allowing the user to perform the action in response to the user completing the risk mitigation.

Abstract: In various exemplary embodiments, a system and associated method to perform an adaptive risk-based assessment of a user is disclosed. The method includes assigning a risk assessment process to the user and providing a plurality of assessment factors to the risk assessment process. The plurality of assessment factors are based on both the user (e.g., previously assessed factors, residence, phone number, address, etc.) and one or more actions the user may perform (e.g., selling an item in an electronic marketplace and the value of the item). A post-action analysis of the risk assessment process is performed. The risk assessment process can be modified based on a determination of the post-action analysis.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling access to database information. One embodiment of the method includes a controlled interface through which database queries can be issued by an authorized user. Additionally, each authorized user may be granted access to specific scripts or tools that operate in conjunction with information stored by a database. Upon logging into the system, a user can be provided via the controlled interface a selection of scripts that he or she is authorized to use in conjunction with the database information. To enable operation of these scripts, specific information within the database is linked to particular scripts. Therefore, a user's access to database information is restricted by the scripts he or she can use with the database. When new information is added to the database and linked to specific scripts, it is automatically available to users granted access to one or more of those scripts.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise a system and method of providing a graphic user interface (GUI) for scripts. The system comprises one or more scripts, a script GUI module and an interface unit. The script GUI module establishes and maintains communication channels between an executing script and the interface unit. The script GUI module receives information from the executing script and determines if the information comprises an input type command. If the information comprises an input type command, the script GUI module generates an appropriate input mechanism as a function of said input type command.
