Abstract

A computer system and method for securely migrating on-premise data sources to a cloud platform. The method comprises identifying a source of record from which data is extracted, transformed, and loaded into a load-ready format. Load-ready data is then stored in a network-attached storage with encryption for secure access. Upon detecting the load-ready data via a file polling sensor, a registration directed acyclic graph (DAG) is initiated to register and validate the data within an operational database. A scanning DAG inspects the data for sensitive information, such as personally identifiable information (PII). If sensitive information is detected, a classification DAG identifies specific data elements, and a de-identification DAG encrypts or masks these elements. The de-identified data is then stored in secure cloud storage, where access is enabled within the cloud platform. A monitoring portal provides real-time status updates for the directed acyclic graphs, enhancing oversight of data security processes during migration.

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.

Disclosed are example methods, systems, and devices that allow for executing machine-learning models for real-time and secure analysis of digital metrics. The techniques include generating metrics for identity elements stored in digital profiles of users. A subset of profiles can be identified that have metrics that fall below a predetermined thresholds, with which a training dataset can be generated. Machine-learning models can be executed over the training dataset to train an artificial intelligence agent that receives digital profiles as input and outputs translational elements corresponding to identity elements in the digital profiles. After training, additional profiles can be input to the machine-learning models of the artificial intelligence agent to identify a second subset of digital profiles with corresponding metrics. Electronic messages corresponding to the second subset can be generated and transmitted to one or more computing devices identified in the second subset of digital profiles.

Abstract

Quality associated with an interpretation of data captured as unstructured data can be determined. Attributes can be identified within the unstructured data automatically. Subsequently, sentiment associated with each of the attributes can be determined based on the unstructured data. Correctness of the unstructured data, and thus the interpretation, can be assessed based on a comparison of the attribute and associated sentiment with structured data. A quality score can be generated that captures the quality of the data interpretation in terms of correctness and as well as results of another analysis including completeness, among others. Comparison of the quality score to a threshold can dictate whether or not the interpretation is subject to further review.

This disclosure is directed to integrating unaffiliated applications, or the processes and/or subsystems (e.g., application interfaces) of unaffiliated applications, with client applications to enable the client applications to provide new capabilities not otherwise available through the client application. The disclosed approach allows users to access new functionality within the operating environment of the client application, without accessing unaffiliated applications and undergoing separate authentication and data exchange with each unaffiliated application. Functionality of an unaffiliated application can be integrated by, for example, incorporating such processes and subsystems as interactive user interfaces, widgets, applets, plugins, etc., of unaffiliated applications.

Abstract

A computing system may be configured to maintain virtual accounts or stashes for designated purchases or goals on top of underlying accounts. The computing system may enable funds to be auto-transferred from other accounts to virtual accounts. The computing systems may also recommend amounts to transfer into a virtual account. For example, a virtual account/stash for taxes may be auto-funded to cover predicted taxes for a small business. Recommendations for new virtual accounts/stashes may be made for future purchases and the like. Vendor offers, such as coupons relevant to the user, may also be provided to users of the virtual accounts based on the user's interactions with the system.

Abstract

A visualization generation computing system generates a visualization data object based on a relationship among multiple portions of resource data, which describes a resource that can be allocated. The visualization data object at least one visualization component that indicates the relationship among the portions of resource data. A user device provides the visualization component via a user interface. The visualization generation computing system receives, from the user device, modification input data that describes an adjusted presentation of the visualization component. Based on the adjusted presentation, the visualization generation computing system determines a modified relationship among the portions of resource data. The visualization generation computing system modifies the visualization data object to include a modified visualization component that describes the modified relationship. In some cases, the visualization generation computing system modifies the portions of resource data based on the modified relationship described by the adjusted presentation.
