  • Publication number: 20160098703
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure describe systems and methods for analyzing images captured by a mobile communications device. A server may transmit a request for a digital image to the mobile communications device. The mobile communications device may use a camera to capture a digital image in response to receipt of the request. The quality of one or more portions of the digital image may be verified. The mobile communications device may transmit the digital image to the server for further image processing and image analysis. The server may process and analyze the digital image to segment and identify particular regions of interest such as regions having printed or handwritten text. The server may extract the text from the digital image and use the extracted text to execute an automated electronic transaction.

  • Patent number: 9059949
    Abstract: Methods, computer readable media, and apparatuses for monitoring regulated associates are presented. According to one or more aspects, a user command to send an electronic message using a mobile computing device may be detected. Subsequently, content of the electronic message may be analyzed to determine whether the message violates one or more policies. In response to determining that the message violates one or more policies, the message may be added to a listing of flagged messages. According to one or more additional aspects, at least one occurrence of an application installation event may be detected on a computing device. In response to detecting the at least one occurrence of the application installation event, an application corresponding to the at least one occurrence of the application installation event may be identified. Subsequently, it may be determined whether the identified application is approved for use on the computing device.

  • Patent number: 9037714
    Abstract: An application manager may distribute applications from trusted servers to end-user devices. The end-user devices, such as mobile devices managed by the application manager, may include devices having different platforms. An application manager may determine whether one or more application servers are trusted servers before determining whether applications may be provided from the application servers. Both internal servers and certain external servers may be trusted application servers when particular criteria are satisfied. An application manager may also manage application licenses for one or more end-user devices.

  • Patent number: 8931050
    Abstract: Systems and methods of controlling access to one or more mobile applications are provided. In some examples, a plurality of business groups may be identified. One or more mobile applications may be associated with each business group. An individual determined to be associated with the business group may then receive, on a mobile device, access to the one or more mobile applications associated with the business group with which he/she is associated. In some examples, the one or more mobile applications may include native applications, web or Internet based applications and/or third party applications provided in a portal. In some examples, the portal may “take over” or mimic the desktop of the mobile device. The systems, methods, and the like may also prevent access to one or more applications not associated with the business group of the individual.

  • Publication number: 20140279453
    Abstract: Aspects herein describe at least a new method, system, and computer readable storage media for facilitating bill payment by way of using an image of a check. A computing system may transmit a bill payment request to a wireless computing device associated with an account holder of a bill payment account. The computing system may determine whether an account holder of the bill payment account holds a funding account held at the first organization, and as a result, may transmit a request to the wireless computing device for an image of a check associated with a second organization when the account holder of the bill payment account does not hold a funding account at the first organization. Bill payment may be made by way of an ACH transaction using a routing number and an account number obtained from the image of the check.
