ACCESS MANAGEMENT OF PUBLISHER NODES FOR SECURE ACCESS TO MAAS NETWORK

Abstract:

A system including a server and a first publisher node device is provided. The first publisher node device transmits a request including an authentication credential associated with the first publisher node device to the server and receives a response including authentication of the first publisher node device as a ticket processing client for a first transportation service. The first publisher node device captures, as the ticket processing client, an event associated with the first transportation service based on the received response and transmits, based on the captured event, a transaction request to a broker node device. The transaction request includes a transaction message and an authorization request to route the transaction message to a first subscriber node device of the MaaS network. The server receives the authorization request from the broker node device and authorizes the broker node device to route the transaction message based on the received authorization request.
