Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a central location to manage permissions provided to third-parties and devices to access and use user data and to manage accounts at multiple entities. A central portal may allow a user to manage all access to account data and personal information as well as usability and functionality of accounts. The user need not log into multiple third-party systems or customer devices to manage previously provided access to the information, provision new access to the information, and to manage financial or other accounts. A user is able to have user data and third-party accounts of the user deleted from devices, applications, and third-party systems via a central portal. The user is able to impose restrictions on how user data is used by devices, applications, and third-party systems, and control such features as recurring payments and use of rewards, via a central portal.

Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for at least semi-automated generation of model documentation. In an example embodiment, a template corresponding to a model is selected. User input populating portions of a build notebook is received. The build notebook comprises a model identifier identifying the model and executable code. The build notebook is executed using an execution engine to cause an intermediary file encoded in a type-setting system to be generated. Executing the build notebook causes cross-references of elements of the model documentation to be mapped to appropriate locations within the intermediary file. The elements comprise graphical representations of results of model tests executed on the model and/or extracted or user-defined artifacts required for the model documentation. The intermediary file is executed using a type-setting system compiler to assemble user-provided text and the elements, in accordance with the template, to generate the model documentation.

Abstract

An automated teller machine (ATM) allows a user with accounts at both a first institution and a second institution to use an ATM of the first institution to physically place cash or a check into the ATM of the first institution for deposit into an account at the second institution. In some cases, a failed attempt message may indicate a funds transfer failed due to a network connectivity issue, an inactive payee account, or an expired payee account number. In case of a network connectivity issue, the funds transfer may be reinitiated. In case of an inactive payee account or expired payee account number, funds may be transferred to the first account instead of the second account. The ATM may display an indication of the failed attempt and a confirmation of a transfer to the first account.

Abstract

A data structure is specialized in efficiently representing a key-value pair in a highly optimized way. The data structure is a pointer in a traversal graph that takes advantage of constant time traversal for all operations. The data structure has specific instructions for inserting data nodes, router nodes, and how the expansion or collapse of the graph works. The data structure can be applied where the time to get the result back is most prominent. The data structure can be used to reduce the memory footprint to reach the data that is being searched and achieve a worst-case time complexity in constant time.

Abstract

Techniques are described for improving real-time application protection (RTAP) systems (e.g., web application firewalls (WAFs), runtime application self-protection (RASP) systems). In particular, a device within a trusted network may monitor or test the configuration settings of the RTAP systems, network traffic into the RTAP systems, and/or log information from the RTAP systems. For example, the device may detect drift in a configuration for a particular RTAP system by comparing the configuration settings of the RTAP systems to baseline configuration settings and classifying any detected drift as good drift or bad drift. In some examples, the device may maintain the configuration settings or set the configuration settings as the baseline configuration settings when the configurations settings include good drift from the baseline configuration settings. In other examples, the device may set the configuration settings with the bad drift to the baseline configuration settings.

Abstract

A technological approach to management of data lifecycle includes protecting data. Datasets from distinct computing environments of an organization can be scanned to identify data elements subject to protection, such as sensitive data. Data lineage associated with the identified data elements can be determined including relationships amongst other data and linkages between computing environments or systems. The identified elements can be automatically protected based at least in part on the lineage such as by masking, encryption, or tokenization. Further, the datasets can be monitored to create audit trails for interactions with the datasets.

Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a customer a central location to manage permissions provided to third-parties and devices to access and use customer information maintained by a financial institution are described. The central location serves as a central portal where a customer of the financial institution can manage all access to account information and personal information stored at the financial institution. Accordingly, the customer does not need to log into each individual third-party system or customer device to manage previously provided access to the customer information or to provision new access to the customer information. A user additionally is able to have user data and third-party accounts of the user deleted from devices, applications, and third-party systems via a central portal. Restrictions on how user data is used by devices, applications, and third-party systems can be imposed via a central portal.

Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method are provided for adaptively controlling communication activity of a communication system. The method stores user information comprising contact preferences, a goal, and account information. The system may receive external information by a trigger engine which applies a trigger rule to determine a degree of relatedness between the goal and at least one of external information and the account information. When the degree of relatedness exceeds a threshold, then the contact preferences may be used to format a communication related to the external information based on the contact preferences. The system may then send the communication to the user by the communication entity according to the contact preferences, and, based on a feedback or lack of feedback from the user related to the communication, adjust at least one of the contact preferences, the trigger rule, or a weighting factor of the trigger rule.
