Methods and systems for detecting one or more security patterns in documents

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses methods and systems for detecting one or more security patterns in a document submitted at a multi-function device. According to the disclosure the document is received at the multi-function device, wherein the document includes at least textual content. Thereafter, a pre-defined operation is performed to detect edges of the at least textual content. Once detected, one or more text edges are filtered based on one or more templates. Further, based on the one or more templates, shape and color of the filtered one or more text edges are analyzed, and accordingly, the presence of the one or more security patterns is ascertained in the submitted document at the multi-function device.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
