  • Patent number: 10826929
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for vulnerability assessment and hash generation for exterior data deployment. In this way, the system utilizes a vulnerability assessment to generate a permit to send approval for dissemination of data, files, or the like outside of the entity via an electronic communication.
