A data aggregation and computation system may include an interface, a controller, and one or more clusters of computation nodes. The interface may receive an inquiry from a requesting entity for computing information regarding an individual based on pieces of information held by a plurality of entities. The controller may communicate an identifier for the individual to a processor system associated with each of the entities based on the inquiry. The clusters of computation nodes may each receive encrypted data fragments from each of the processor systems, the data fragments comprising unrecognizable fragments that no individual processor system can re-assemble to recover the information, perform secure, multi-party computations based on the data fragments, and generate a result based on the secure, multi-party computations for the individual.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2020Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: Experian Information Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Chen, Hua Li, Juncheng Liu, Zhixuan Wang, Shumin Guo, Eric Haller, Steve Yin

Patent number: 11615161Abstract: Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for dynamically enabling customized web content and applications. One or more rules are stored in a database. Default tag code is transmitted to a browser in response to a request from the browser, the default tag code including data that causes the browser to generate a tag module. An update is received from the tag module comprising data indicative of a visitor's interaction with web page content displayed through the browser. A condition associated with a rule from the one or more rules is determined to be satisfied based on the update. An action associated with the rule is performed, comprising transmitting custom targeted tag code to the tag module, wherein the custom targeted tag code includes data that causes the browser, upon execution of the custom targeted tag code by the tag module, to perform an action.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2017Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: LIVEPERSON, INC.Inventors: Asaf Lavi, Efim Dimenstein, Eli Campo

Patent number: 11615425Abstract: A cloud services composition system allows customers to interactively create service constructs from network function virtualization resources. The network function virtualization primitives are modeled using a standard modeling language. An expert system suggests network function virtualization resources for use in the service construct, based on an expert system learning algorithm. The customer uses a graphical user interface to interconnect the resources and create the service construct. The process may involve collaboration with the network provider. The resulting construct is validated for use in a communications network.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Rittwik Jana, Thomas Kirk, Syed Anwar Aftab, John F.

Patent number: 11605067Abstract: A transaction terminal dynamically and regularly changes a unique transaction terminal identifier (ID). The transaction terminal ID is reported to a remote manager. During a transaction, a mobile device automatically reads a current transaction terminal ID from the transaction terminal, appends a mobile device ID for the mobile device, and sends the transaction terminal ID with the mobile device ID to the remote manager. The remote manager links the mobile ID to details associated with a user of the mobile device and sends the details to the transaction terminal. The transaction terminal uses the details to customize a transaction being conducted by the user at the transaction terminal.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: NCR CorporationInventor: Andrew David Monaghan
