In some examples, a transaction instrument includes a body that defines a first face and a second face, a chip assembly comprising an integrated circuit chip, an aperture in a portion of the body that provides access to a portion of the transaction instrument, and an attachment mechanism configured to secure the chip assembly at least partially within the body and hold the chip assembly substantially flush with the first face of the body. At least one of the body, the attachment mechanism, or a portion of the chip assembly is designed to fail in response to a force applied via the aperture in the body, and wherein the failure of the at least one of the body, the attachment mechanism, or the portion of the chip assembly, destroys the integrated circuit chip of the transaction instrument.

Disclosed are approaches for computationally-efficient data promulgation among devices in a network. Structured databases may comprise standardized and immutable bytes, each byte linked to a unique data field, a mutable state element, and a mutable activation element. The state element may indicate that there has been a mutation as well as a recency of the mutation. The activation element may indicate whether data pushes and/or data pulls are enabled. The state elements are configured to automatically mutate if there is a mutation in a corresponding unique data field. Each device in the network may transmit API calls as state-element requests to other entity devices in a network. The API call includes at least one byte, without any values in corresponding data fields. State elements are promulgated among devices, without sharing the data fields themselves. An optional central system maintains a record of state elements without storing data field values.

This disclosure describes computer-based techniques for administering a spoken patterned passphrase. A passphrase processing unit running on an administrator computer generates passphrase data for a secure system using acoustic data and video data representing a spoken phrase by a speaker. This passphrase includes a pattern of words or speech segments that are audible and words or speech segments that are inaudible. During authentication, a passphrase administration unit on the administrator computer receives acoustic and visual data of a spoken phrase by a person attempting to access the secure system and evaluates whether the spoken phrase includes the pattern of audible and inaudible words or speech segments associated with the account. In this way, the techniques discussed herein may enable the administrator computer to administer spoken passphrases with an additional degree of protection than a system that is limited to using linguistic or biometric content in passwords or passphrases.
