Client-side security for tokenized transactions
View Patent ↗A program product and device for processing transactions within a token transfer device, such as a smartphone or other portable electronic device. The method includes storing a transaction token having a specified transaction resource value and an associated validation parameter in the memory of the token transfer device. A transaction communication interface initiates a transaction service with a token recipient terminal and invokes a token state manager. The token state manager determines an event corresponding to the specified validation parameter by determining a transaction resource network connect activity status and by determining condition register data associated with the validation parameter. The token state manager then issues a transaction modification call based on the determined event and the validation parameter.
1. A computer program product for processing transactions within a token transfer device, said computer program product comprising:
a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith,
the program instructions comprising program instructions to,
store a transaction token having a specified transaction resource value and an associated validation parameter;
initiate a transaction service with a token recipient terminal;
invoke a token state manager in association with said initiating a transaction service; and
the token state manager comprising program instructions to,
determine an event corresponding to the specified validation parameter, wherein said program instructions to determine an event comprise program instructions to,
determine a resource account network connect activity status; and
determine condition register data associated with the validation parameter; and
issue a transaction modification call based on the determined event and the validation parameter.
2. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein said program instructions to determine an event further comprise program instructions to process the condition register data with a value of the validation parameter.
3. The computer program product of claim 2 , wherein the validation parameter includes a first value associated with a network disconnect status of the token transfer device.
4. The computer program product of claim 3 , wherein the validation parameter further includes a second value associated with a network connect status of the token transfer device.
5. The computer program product of claim 3 , wherein said program instructions to process the condition register content with the value of the validation parameter comprises program instructions to select the value of the validation parameter to be compared based on whether the token transfer device is communicatively connected to a resource account network interface.
6. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein said program instructions to initiate a transaction service comprise program instructions to:
send a transaction service request to the token recipient terminal to begin a transaction startup protocol;
receive a transaction response from the token recipient terminal; and
suspend the transaction startup protocol until said issuing a transaction modification call.
7. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the validation parameter is assigned by a token management program executed from within the token transfer device.
8. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the token state manager operates in a system memory space of the token transfer device.
9. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein said program instructions to issue a transaction modification call comprise program instructions within the token state manager to communicate directly or indirectly to the resource account application to enable or disable the transaction tokens.
10. A token transfer device comprising:
a processor; and
a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith,
the program instructions executable by the processor to cause the token transfer device to,
store a transaction token having a specified transaction resource value and an associated validation parameter;
initiate a transaction service with a token recipient terminal;
invoke a token state manager in association with said initiating a transaction service; and
the token state manager comprising program instructions to,
determine an event corresponding to the specified validation parameter, wherein said program instructions to determine an event comprise program instructions to,
determine a resource account network connect activity status; and
determine condition register data associated with the validation parameter; and
issue a transaction modification call based on the determined event and the validation parameter.
11. The token state manager of claim 10 , wherein said program instructions to cause the token transfer device to determine an event further comprise program instructions to process the condition register data with a value of the validation parameter.
12. The token state manager of claim 11 , wherein the validation parameter includes a first value associated with a network disconnect status of the token transfer device.
13. The token state manager of claim 12 , wherein the validation parameter further includes a second value associated with a network connect status of the token transfer device.
14. The token state manager of claim 12 , wherein said program instructions to cause the token transfer device to process the condition register content with the value of the validation parameter comprise program instructions to select the value of the validation parameter to be compared based on whether the token transfer device is communicatively connected to a resource account network interface.
15. The token state manager of claim 10 , wherein said program instructions to cause the token transfer device to initiate a transaction service comprise program instructions to cause the token transfer device to:
send a transaction service request to the token recipient terminal to begin a transaction startup protocol;
receive a transaction response from the token recipient terminal; and
suspend the transaction startup protocol until said issuing a transaction modification call.
16. The token state manager of claim 10 , wherein the validation parameter is assigned by a token management program executed from within the token transfer device.
17. The token state manager of claim 10 , wherein the token state manager operates in a system memory space of the token transfer device.
18. The token state manager of claim 10 , wherein said program instructions to cause the token transfer device to issue a transaction modification call comprise program instructions within the token state manager to communicate directly or indirectly to the resource account application to enable or disable the transaction tokens.
