Abstract: A system and method for processing promotions in connection with digital purchasing. Data associated with a digital purchase request made by a consumer (the data comprising a token, an amount associated with the transaction, a promotional code for each item included in the digital purchase request associated with a promotion, a default transaction amount, and a single default promotional code) is received from a merchant server. The single default promotional code is assigned to all items included in the digital purchase request that are associated with promotions. Using the token, account information associated with the consumer is retrieved from a database. For each promotional code received, promotional information is retrieved. The retrieved promotional information is displayed. The digital purchase request is submitted for processing using the single default promotional code.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide an integrated access control system. The integrated access control system includes both credential reader functionality and door controller functionality in the same package. In embodiments, the circuitry is miniaturized to fit within a standard “single gang” box such as those used for a standard light switch or receptacle. In this way, the integrated access control system of disclosed embodiments installs easily and unobtrusively in standard sized openings. To operate in a confined area such as a single gang box enclosure, a variety of thermal management and power management techniques are employed to provide reliable operation.

Abstract: A device includes communication circuitry configured to receive a message indicating an observation of an agent device. The device further includes a processor coupled to the communication circuitry and a memory. The memory stores instructions that are executable by the processor to cause the processor to perform operations. The operations include accessing a blockchain data structure. The blockchain data structure includes one or more blocks including data descriptive of observations of a plurality of agent devices, where the plurality of agent devices including the agent device. The operations also include determining, based on one or more blocks of the blockchain data structure, a behavior of the agent device. The operations also include determine whether the behavior satisfies a behavior criterion associated with the agent device.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for entry access synchronization. A lock interface module is installed at a premises and is in communication with one or more electronic locks. The lock interface module is in electronic communication with an access management system. Changes in access permissions made from the access management system are quickly propagated to the electronic locks by the lock interface module.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an improved access control unit with an asymmetric transmission pattern. A shielded backplate reduces the interior transmission pattern. The secure side transmission pattern is much smaller than the unsecure side transmission pattern, such that a credential located within the secure side area of a building is not likely to trigger the access control unit, thus reducing the risk of an unauthorized access.
