4 results about "Email authentication" patented technology

A system and method are disclosed for enabling secure and low-friction peer-to-peer financial transactions using email communication without requiring user login. A payment server receives an email message from a responder that includes a token embedded in a mailto hyperlink. The server extracts and decodes the token to retrieve transaction data, including the responder's email address and a transaction amount. The server authenticates the responder by comparing the email address extracted from the token with the sender address of the email. Upon successful validation, the server initiates a financial transaction with a payment processing system—without requiring the responder to access a login page, enter credentials, or navigate to a website. The invention improves upon conventional browser-based payment workflows by reducing user interaction and enhancing transaction efficiency and security.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to message validation. A computing platform may receive a message, sent by a first device and directed to a second device, from an electronic messaging server. The computing platform may verify, based on message sender details, an identity of a sender of the message. The computing platform may generate, after verifying the identity of the sender of the message, an authentication token for the message, and may inject the authentication token into the message. The computing platform may route, to the electronic messaging server and after injecting the authentication token into the message, the message. The computing platform may receive a request to validate the message, which may include the authentication token and details of the message. The computing platform may identify, using the authentication token and the details of the message, that the message is authenticated.

Systems and methods are provided to integrate an email validation application with a web application. A custom email composer of the web application may include a context identifier in a draft email, where the context identifier identifies an issue activity log. The email validation application may validate the draft email in response to a validation request received from the custom email composer, where the validation request includes the context identifier. A custom backend component of the web application may write a validation status to the issue activity log in response to receipt of the validation status from the email validation application. The custom backend component may send the draft email in response to the validation status indicating the draft email is validated.
