A computer implemented method for generating a receipt. The method includes, accessing a universal digital fingerprint associated with an item of content, wherein the fingerprint is invariant across one or more formats of the item of content. The method includes accessing an identification value by the processor. The method includes generating a digital token by cryptographically binding the digital fingerprint and the identification value, wherein the digital token is invariant across the one or more formats of the item of content. The method further includes associating the digital token with at least one right to the item of content.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing machine learning models for smart contracts using distributed ledger technologies in a cloud based computing environment are described herein. For example, according to one embodiment there is a system having at least a processor and a memory therein executing within a host organization and having therein: means for operating a blockchain interface to a blockchain on behalf of a plurality of tenants of the host organization, in which each one of the plurality of tenants operate as a participating node with access to the blockchain; receiving historical data from each of the participating nodes on the blockchain; generating a new machine learning model at the host organization by inputting the historical data received from the participating nodes into a neural network of a machine learning platform operating at the host organization; receiving a consensus agreement from the plurality of participating nodes; deploying the new machine learning model to the participating nodes as a component of a smart contract to be executed in fulfillment of the smart contract transactions; receiving a transaction at the blockchain and responsively triggering the smart contract to process the transaction onto the blockchain; and executing the smart contract which includes executing the new machine learning model as part of the smart contract. Other related embodiments are disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to product activation of products purchased online or through electronic commerce platforms. The disclosure provides methods, systems, and computer program products that enable secure activation of products using user identity data. The disclosure implements secure activation based on activation records maintained in an activation server and a unique registrant ID corresponding to an intended user of the product that is generated and maintained at an identity verification platform.

An electronic money system terminates communication to a management center indistinguishably from a case in which the communication to the management center is completed within a predetermined period when it is impossible to complete the communication to the management center within the predetermined period. By switching an operation mode, a predetermined portable terminal is used instead of a communication line to upload and download data. When it is impossible to obtain data required for processing through the communication line, processing is performed based on data possessed up until that time.

A payment method, apparatus and medium are provided. The method includes: preventing a floating window from being displayed on an interface displayed by a payment application when the payment application is running on foreground; receiving a payment operation triggered by a user on the interface; paying in accordance with the payment operation.

A computer-implemented service integrates with merchant sites to enable registered users of the service to perform purchase transactions on the merchant sites. In one embodiment, a merchant can incorporate a reference to a display object served by the service into coding of a page of the merchant's site. When the page is loaded by a user's browser, the reference causes the browser to request the display object from the service for display on the page. If the user is recognized by the service, the service may return a personalized display object that includes functionality for the user to perform a purchase transaction using the service. Also disclosed are embodiments that enable users to initiate transfers of personal account information to the merchant sites.

A method for facilitating a wireless transaction includes receiving, by a transaction fulfillment system, a transaction request from a transaction requester and verifying an identity of the transaction requester. After verifying the identity of the transaction requester, a transaction code is communicated from the transaction fulfillment system to a wireless communication device. After receiving the transaction code, the transaction code is optically scanned from a visual display of the wireless communication device by the transaction fulfillment system.

Disclosed are an authentication information processing method and apparatus and a user terminal including an authentication information processing method and apparatus. The authentication information processing method performed by the disclosed authentication information processing apparatus comprises the steps of: obtaining biometric information of a user; obtaining a unique key corresponding to the authentication information processing apparatus; and generating an authentication key by using at least a part of the biometric information and at least a part of the unique key.

A system and method for authenticating network transaction trustworthiness, a bottom layer of the system supports two mainstream operating systems, i.e., Windows and Linux; basic management modules, i.e., respectively a communication management module, a certificate management module and a database management module are above the bottom layer support; a fourth-party authentication domain is above the foundation management modules; a user domain, an E-merchant domain, a third-party payment domain and the like are also provided. The method comprises the steps: 1) when a network transaction occurs, uploading, by a user, a digital certificate to perform digital authentication by logging into a security client, and simultaneously uploading, by an E-merchant and a third-party payment platform, digital certificates thereof to perform corresponding digital authentication; 2) after the digital authentication passes, downloading, by the user, a behavior certificate through a user behavior certificate downloading module, and formally entering, by the three parties, a transaction process; etc.

A method of monitoring network traffic for cryptojacking activity is provided. A request is received from a protected host. It is determined whether the request is a cryptocurrency request based on whether the request uses a protocol specified for requests belonging to the cryptocurrency communication. In response to a determination that that the request is a cryptocurrency request for the cryptocurrency, a second request is submitted to a destination indicated by the request, wherein the second request is formatted as a cryptocurrency request for the cryptocurrency. A determination is made whether a reply to the second request from the destination is a cryptocurrency response for the cryptocurrency based on whether the response uses a protocol specified for a response that belongs to communication associated with the cryptocurrency. An intervention action is caused in response to a determination that that the reply to the second request from the destination is a cryptocurrency response for the cryptocurrency.
