A server module authenticates the first and second user identifiers, and compares the transmitted plurality of request header attributes with request header attributes stored at the computer system and associated with the first and second user identifiers. If the first and second user identifiers are authenticated, and if a predetermined number of transmitted request header attributes match stored request header attributes, the server software module transmits a success message, and the user is allowed to access the secure computer system. | 11-15-2012 |
20120136791 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CLEARING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - A method and system for electronically clearing financial instruments through a clearing system in which a per item cost of clearing instruments varies with the time of day.

The rule may include a step of determining whether an amount of the instrument exceeds a predetermined value or meets a certain criteria, and if so, forwarding the instrument for clearing without storage. If the amount of the instrument does not exceed the first predetermined value or meet the criteria, the system may store the item for forwarding at a later time when the per item fee for clearing is lower. | 05-31-2012 |
