Abstract

Systems and methods for validating added components for a vehicle. In some aspects, the system may determine from a plurality of cryptographic tokens related to a plurality of assets, a cryptographic token corresponding to a validation request for an asset and received from a computing device. The system may determine whether one or more added components from the validation request are capable of being integrated with the asset in presence of one or more base components for the asset from the cryptographic token. In response to determining that the one or more added components are being integrated, the system may determine, using a first machine learning model, whether the one or more added components are credible. In response to determining that at least one component of the one or more added components is not credible, the system may generate an alert indicating the at least one component as not credible.

in response to determining that the list of added components is compatible with the base components, determining, using the first machine learning model, whether each added component of the list of added components is credible;

transmitting, to the computing device, the alert.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions when executed by the one or more processors cause further operations comprising:

prior to receiving the validation request, receiving, from a user device, a generation request to generate the cryptographic token, wherein the generation request comprises vehicle data and a user identifier;

determining, based on the user identifier, an address associated with a cryptography-based storage application corresponding to the user device, wherein the cryptography-based storage application comprises a private key; and

3 . A method for validating added components for a vehicle, the method comprising:

receiving, from a computing device, a validation request, wherein the validation request comprises a vehicle identifier and a list of added components;

in response to determining that one or more added components are not credible, generating an alert indicating the one or more added components as not credible.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein determining, using a first machine learning model, whether each added component is credible, based on each associated outcome further comprises retrieving the information relating to the vehicle from the cryptographic token, and parsing the information to generate a list of updated components related to the vehicle and the associated outcome.

5 . The method of claim 3 , further comprising, in response to determining that the list of added components is not compatible with the base components, determining whether the base components are credible based on the vehicle identifier.

6 . The method of claim 3 , wherein determining, using a first machine learning model, whether each added component of the list of added components is credible, further comprises:

transmitting, to a database, a first request for a plurality of cryptographic tokens, wherein the database stores a plurality of cryptographic tokens, and wherein the first request comprises a search vehicle identifier; and

comparing the plurality of cryptographic tokens to determine probability of whether each added component of the list of added components is credible.

7 . The method of claim 3 , further comprising:
