System and methods for automatic adjustment of data syndications via identification of technically unauthorized data-distribution

A computer program product for adjustment of data syndications, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code causing an apparatus to:

• receive a request for data feed subscription from a first downstream system;
• generate a response requesting one or more authorization credentials or data element usage rationale;
• transmit the response to the first downstream system;
• receive authorization credentials and data element usage rationale from the first downstream system;
• generate an authorization key and data feed subscription validity period for the first downstream system to access a set of data elements via a secure application programming interface (API);
• continually monitor incoming data requests from the first downstream system and one or more additional downstream systems for the authorization key and determine usage frequency of the authorization key;
• and
• automatically adjust the authorization key or data feed subscription validity period based on determined usage frequency of the authorization key.
