A computer-implemented method includes identifying behavioral characteristics of a user related to operation of a computing device prior to an online account session. The method includes comparing the behavioral characteristics to a behavioral profile previously developed based on prior behavioral characteristics of the user, and determining an appropriate mark difficulty level based on a variation between the behavioral characteristics and the behavioral profile. The method includes selecting, from a plurality of prompts stored in a prompt database, a prompt that comprises instructions to draw a mark having the appropriate mark difficulty level, where other prompts of the plurality of prompts comprise instructions to draw other marks different from the mark, and providing the prompt to the user as part of a logon process for the online account session.

Behavioral profiling method and system to authenticate a user

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for generating a shared budget for an account associated with a first user and a second user, wherein the first user is associated with a first client device and the second user is associated with a second client device. A notification may be transmitted to the second client device based on an attempted purchase via the first client device. The notification may be displayed in a graphical user interface (GUI) of the second client device, and may include information related to the attempted purchase, such as the cost of one or more items, total value of the shared budget, remaining value in the shared budget, and so on. The second user may approve or decline the purchase request.

Systems and methods for online payment transactions

A method and system of providing users with dynamic content about a specific task during access of an application based on previous in-app activity by the app's community of users for the task. The system identifies experienced user activity that represents an efficient performance of the task. The activity is stored in a repository for use by a dynamic content generation module. When subsequent users appear to need assistance in performing the task, the system can present content that is based on the more experienced users' activity. As additional data is collected, this content can be updated.

System and method for dynamic context sensitive guidance

The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and apparatus for securing electronic personal identifying information. The system enhances data privacy, by minimizing the amount of authentic personal identifying information that is shared with a third party. Namely, the system includes a database of known websites, apps, etc. that require personal identifying information to sign up—and then classifies whether any given type of information is strictly necessary to the functioning of the website. The system then generates placeholder 'dummy' data for any fields that are required for signup, but are not strictly necessary for the website to function. The system allows for creation of several user profiles that vary the amount of authentic personal identifying information to be shared, based on the user's preferences. The system therefore helps to secure personal information in the event that, for example, the website later has a data breach. Such a system may be useful, for example, as a smartphone app or as a web browser plugin.

System for securing electronic personal user data

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for performing online payment transactions from any web page being accessed on a client device by automatically generating a payment application icon on the web page through which a user can make payments. The content of the web page may be analyzed to determine if the user is conducting a payment. When a payment request is identified, a payment application icon is displayed on the web page. When the user interacts with the payment application icon, a payment prompt is displayed where the user can input payment information. Upon the user providing payment information, a payment server transmit a payment to an account associated with the web page, based on the user's payment information.

The method also includes the steps of providing the prompt to a user as part of a logon process for an online account session, identifying behavioral characteristics of the user while the user draws the mark, comparing the behavioral characteristics to a behavioral profile previously developed based on prior behavioral characteristics of the user, and providing access to the online account session in response to determining that a variation between the behavioral characteristics and the behavioral profile is within a threshold.
