  • Patent number: 11889480
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, apparatus, methods and/or the like for generating a resource distribution hub using for fully electronic resource distribution by using mobile device application designed to interface with an embedded Near-Field Communication (NFC) tag in a resource distribution instrument that stores instructions for processing the resource distribution authorization information. The holder (i.e., resource provider) of the resource distribution instrument can use the resource distribution instrument to communicate to a mobile communication device having an NFC reader to read the instructions and process a resource distribution according to the parameters of the mobile device application. As such, the holder (i.e., resource provider) of the resource distribution request can process the resource distribution without having to issue a credentials, aliases, pin codes, and the like conventionally used to authorizes the distribution of resources to the resource requester.

  • Publication number: 20230367645
    Abstract: A system is provided for implementing dynamic authentication restrictions for resource instrument use. In particular, the system may be configured to implement a spectrum of resource transfer restrictions on a device level, resource transfer instrument level, and/or resource transfer type level, where the restrictions may be implemented based on user input and/or automatically through machine learning processes. In some embodiments, the system may implement dynamic resource restrictions per resource transfer based on a trained machine learning model. In this way, the system may provide an efficient and secure way to implement resource transfer restrictions.

  • Publication number: 20230368201
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for implementing end-point authentication restriction for resource distribution devices. The system is configured for receiving a resource distribution request, wherein the resource distribution request is initiated via a resource distribution device associated with a user at an end-point, determining, via a machine learning model, an end-point identifier associated with the end-point, classifying the resource distribution request based at least in part on the end-point identifier associated with the end-point, and authenticating the resource distribution request based on classifying the resource distribution request.

  • Publication number: 20230367646
    Abstract: A system is also provided for intelligent type-based implementation of restrictions on resource transfers. In this regard, the system may allow for resource transfers set according to a preset resource transfer pattern to be executed while restricting net new resource transfers upon compromise of the resource transfer instrument. Subsequently, the system may use a machine learning model to analyze the attributes of incoming resource transfer requests and determine whether the resource transfer should be allowed or restricted based on the preset resource transfer pattern. In this way, the system may provide a way to fine-tune restrictions on executing resource transfers.

  • Patent number: 11797621
    Abstract: Additional user data in resource transfer event messaging is leveraged for generating customized and refined web browsing experiences. Resource transfer messages are configured to include, not only the user data required to affect the resource transfer, but other user data related to the resource transfer event, such as user preference data. The resource transfer event messages are communicated to a resource storage entity, which stores the other user data in resource transfer event repository. In response to a user authenticating with the resource storage entity and accessing a distributed communication network, such as the Internet or the like, the user records are accessed and the additional user data is used to customize the websites that the user navigates.

  • Patent number: 11722904
    Abstract: In general, apparatuses, methods and computer program products for construction and detection of spatial movements in a virtual reality (VR) space for performance of electronic activities are disclosed. A VR composite credential authentication device is provided that is configured is structured for capturing, customizing and transforming one or more VR composite credentials of a user and authenticating electronic activities based on at least the VR composite credentials. The VR composite credentials of the user are captured using one or more VR spatial sensor devices which are configured for capture and imaging of VR spatial movement and position credentials. The captured credentials are analyzed to determine an associated electronic activity. The electronic activity is initiated, automatically, in response to the successful validation of the captured credentials. Moreover, the invention allows for setting-up an infinitely customizable library of registered VR composite credentials.

  • Patent number: 11716290
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for dynamic linking of resource data structures across distributed networks. The system is structured for enhancing data security by evaluating and determining iterations of data transformations associated with resource data structures across networks and establishing deletion and usage modification mechanisms for stored unauthorized downstream iterations. The system is structured to link a first front end resource data structure and a downstream transformation comprising a first entity resource data structure. The system is structured to construct a real-time interactive technology resource interface such that the technology resource interface is structured to present graphical interface objects associated with the link between the first front end resource data structure and the first entity resource data structure.

  • Publication number: 20230153446
    Abstract: Intelligently determination of intent of a resource provider when attempting to delete a resource event device, specifically, the resource event credentials associated with the resource event device, from a network location. Intent is determined by implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze the resource provider's historical data to determine a probable/possible intent and, in response, queries are presented to the resource provider that attempt to confirm the probable/possible intent as the actual intent. In response to determining the intent, the invention is configured to perform one or more actions that are based on the determined intent.

  • Patent number: 11631099
    Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for recurring auxiliary resource distribution. The present invention may be configured to detect a trigger event associated with a plurality of sources, where the plurality of sources includes a standard source and an auxiliary source, and where the plurality of sources is associated with a user. The present invention may be configured to transform, using a resource transformation engine and based on the trigger event, a first amount of auxiliary resources in the auxiliary source to a second amount of standard resources, deduct the first amount of auxiliary resources from a first balance of the auxiliary source, and add the second amount of standard resources to a second balance of the standard source. The present invention may be configured to perform a resource distribution using the second amount of standard resources from the standard source.

  • Publication number: 20220308946
    Abstract: Configuring resource transfer event messages to include, not only the user data required to affect the resource transfer (e.g., resource repository identifier and the like), but other user data related to the resource transfer event, such as user preference data. The resource transfer event messages are communicated to resource storage entities that subsequently store user records that associate users with the resource transfer events and the additional user data. In this regard, a security benefit is realized, in that, resource storage entities can leverage the additional data to investigate potential nefarious actions. Moreover, by including the additional user information in resource transfer event messages communicated to resource storage entities, the volume of resource transfer event messages or other network-based messages is lessened thereby limiting network traffic and making the overall process more efficient and effective.
