An embodiment of a method of providing identity assurance for a decentralized application (DApp) includes executing, by at least one distributed node of a blockchain system, an entitlement contract stored on the blockchain to perform a read call from a DApp contract stored on the blockchain, the read call including an address signing a transaction to the DApp contract. Performing the read call may include reading a list of registered addresses stored on the blockchain, determining whether the list includes the signing address; and providing an output indicating whether the list includes the signing address. The method may further include executing, by the at least one distributed node, a registry contract stored on the blockchain to perform a read call from the DApp contract, the read call including an identifier of the decentralized application. Performing the read call may include reading a list of registered applications stored on the blockchain; determining whether the list includes the identifier; and if so, providing an output indicating an address of the entitlement contract.

Systems and methods for providing identity assurance for decentralized applications

Computer-readable media, systems and methods may improve security, authorization, and auditability of documents. For example, computer systems for serving documents may be improved to provide secure access and control through challenges that are validated with self-executing on-chain document license contracts that enforce entitlements that specify users and their authorized document actions. Such entitlements may be generated by the user who created the document. As such, a user may retain over authorizations and document actions that are permissible with respect to the document even after the user has transferred a copy of the document. Furthermore, the computer systems may be improved to write an on-chain audit log of document actions, providing an immutable record of the document actions.

Authentication, authorization and audit of digital assets using the blockchain

An embodiment of a method of recording transactions conducted in a public distributed ledger system using a personal distributed ledger system includes: generating, by a wallet distributed application, an address in the public distributed ledger system and a private key; signing, by the wallet distributed application, a transaction to a distributed application in the public distributed ledger system using the generated address and private key; generating, by the wallet distributed application, a transaction to the personal distributed ledger system, the generated transaction containing information identifying the signed transaction to the public distributed ledger system, such as the private key used to sign the transaction; and transmitting, by the wallet distributed application, the transaction to at least one distributed node of the personal distributed ledger system.

Systems and methods for providing a personal distributed ledger

An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: receive a user input; and based on the user input, provide an open instance of a first camera control application on a first apparatus as a corresponding open instance of an at least related camera control application on a second apparatus.

Camera control application

A method comprising identifying a user account associated with a user, the user account referencing at least one third party user account associated with the user, receiving, by an apparatus from a separate apparatus, circumstantial information that is indicative of a user context of the user, determining the user context based on the circumstantial information, determining that the user context is classified by at least one user context classification that is associated with the third party user account, sending information indicative of the third party user account and the user context to a third party server, the third party server being associated with the third party user account, receiving a third party proposition from the third party server, and sending, to a user apparatus, the third party proposition in response to the receipt of the third party proposition is disclosed.

Determination of a user context and sending of a third party proposition

An apparatus including at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: receive a user input; and based on the user input, provide an open instance of a first application on a first device as a corresponding open instance of at least a related application on a second device.

Provision of an open instance of an application

A method comprising calculating a third party solicitation fee for a third party, receiving, from a third party server, a third party solicitation on behalf of the third party, sending the third party solicitation to a user apparatus in response to the receipt of the third party solicitation, the third party solicitation comprising a request for a specified action, receiving information indicative of the user apparatus performing the specified action, and decreasing the third party solicitation fee based, at least in part, on the receipt of the information indicative of the user apparatus performing the specified action is disclosed.

Calculation of a third party solicitation fee

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided herein for enabling task based access to functionality provided by one or more remote services. One example method may include generating a task based query, the task based query suggestive of a task to be performed. A method may further include causing the task based query to be provided to a remote service discovery engine. A method may further include receiving an indication of a remote service of a plurality of remote services that is configured to perform the task from the remote service discovery engine, the indication comprising access instructions for querying the remote service.

Method and apparatus for enabling remote service task based access to functionality provided by one or more remote services

In one or more embodiments described herein, there is provided an apparatus comprising at least one processor; and at least one memory having computer program code stored thereon, the at least one memory and computer program code being configured to, when run on the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to provide an application switcher to a first device, the application switcher providing an indication of content available to the first device from one or more open applications on a second device, wherein at least part of the content of the one or more open applications of the second device is shareable in real time with an application on the first device; and provide, in response to user-selection of content from the application switcher, the user-selected shareable content of the open application of the second device for use on the first device using a first device application.
