  • Publication number: 20240193546
    Abstract: Techniques for generating policy compliance assets are disclosed. An example method includes receiving a body of training data comprising a policy document and policy action codes that correspond with the policy document, wherein the policy action codes comprise machine-readable computer code for implementing policies contained in the policy document. The method also includes processing the policy document to generate a structured dataset of policy actions. The method also includes generating, by a processing device, a trained model to create a mapping between the policy actions and the policy action codes.

  • Patent number: 11586456
    Abstract: A method for applying agency and regulation modeling in a multi-tenant architecture system includes accessing merchant's representation in an identity manager. The merchant is managed via a full representation by an original identity manager. The method includes performing a first service for the merchant via the representation, and determining, based on results of the first service and on policies of the first service provider, that performance of a second service is required for completion of the first service. The second service is provided by a second service provider onboarded into the first service provider, where the second service amends policy requirements of the first service provider. The method includes accessing a first subservice of the second service using the representation to generate second results for use at a second subservice of the second service, the second subservice configured to use transaction resources of the first representation.
