A method of communicating a payment request from a first payment platform to a second payment platform is disclosed. The method may receive a payment request from a sending user on the first payment platform to a receiving user on the second payment platform where the payment request from the sending user is translated into a protected payment request. In response to the sending user being known, the protected payment request may be communicated to the second payment platform. An acceptance of the protected payment request from the second payment platform may be received. A transaction settlement request may be communicated to the first payment platform and the second payment platform.

Privacy protected consumers identity for centralized P2P network services

Techniques are provided to generate a secure communication for use in a transaction. In some embodiments, a user device is provided a first set of encryption keys associated with one or more authorizing entities. The user device may, prior to or during a transaction, receive one or more second encryption keys related to a second party to the transaction. In some embodiments, the one or more second encryption keys may be provided to the user device via a local communication means. Once the user device has been provided with transaction details, it may generate a transaction request using the multiple encryption keys that it has been provided, such that portions of the message are encrypted using different encryption keys.

Multi-level communication encryption

Among others, techniques and systems are disclosed for analyzing security threats associated with software and computer vulnerabilities. Stakeholder values relevant for a software system are identified. The identified stakeholder values are quantified using a quantitative decision making approach to prioritize vulnerabilities of the software system. A structured attack graph is generated to include the quantified stakeholder values to define a scalable framework to evaluate attack scenarios. The structured attack graph includes two or more nodes. Based on the generated structured attack graph, structured attack paths are identified with each attack path representing each attack scenario.
