  • Patent number: 12131362
    Abstract: Embodiments facilitate commercial transactions between a user and one or more vendors without requiring a user to provide information unique to a user account for the vendor. Embodiments prompt a user to select one or more vendors from a list of vendors. An authorization is obtained from the user to allow the computer program to retrieve the product from the list of vendors and on behalf of the user. The computer program then requests and receives, from each vendor, information for accessing an electronic resource of the vendor. In embodiments, the received information is unique to the user account for the vendor. The computer program then obtains the product from the vendor based on the received information. The computer program thus presents a centralized management service for obtaining product from a plurality of vendors and without requiring the user to provide user information unique to the user for each vendor.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to the utilization of trust tokens to perform secure message transactions between two devices. A trust token transmitted in a message from one device may include first data that is digitally signed by a trust provider computer, and second data that is digitally signed by the device itself. Upon receipt of a message containing a trust token, the recipient may utilize the first data to verify with the trust provider computer that the sender of the message is a trusted party. The trust provider computer may provide the recipient device the public key of the sender. The recipient may utilize the second data and the provided public key to verify that the sender signed the message and that the message is unaltered. These techniques may increase detection of relay, replay, or other man-in-the-middle attacks, decreasing the likelihood that such attacks will be successful.

The computing system may place each key block of the leaf node having keys less than or equal to the selected key in a first new leaf node, and may place each key block of the leaf node having keys greater than the selected key in a second new leaf node. To join leaf nodes of the tree structure, the computing system may place each key block and each value block of the leaf node and the adjacent leaf node in a new leaf node.

  • Patent number: 12079573
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for classifying information in conversations and extracting information from the conversations. An Engagement Intelligence Platform (EIP) analyzes transcripts of conversations to find different states and information associated with each of the states (e.g., identification that the interest rate was quoted, and the quoted value of the interest rate). The EIP analyzes the conversation and labels (e.g., “tags”) the text where the conversation associated with the label took place, such as, “An interest rate was provided.” The labels are customizable, so each client can define its own labels based on business needs. Further, the EIP extracts data from the conversation (e.g., the interest rate is “3%”).
