Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed that provide for secure communications between a user device and an authentication system. The systems and methods create a dynamic identification for the device that is stored in both the device and authentication system.
Claims8
A system, comprising:
- a device comprising device memory;
- an authenticating system comprising authentication system memory;
- a device identification registered at both the device and the authenticating system;
- and
- a communications network for transmitting data between the device and the authenticating system;
- wherein the device and authentication system memories contain the device identification assigned to the device;
- wherein the authenticating system authenticates the device for each transaction between the device and the authenticating system by comparing a dynamic login identification created for each transaction in both the device and the authenticating system;
- and
- wherein the dynamic login identification is created at the device and authenticating system by combining the device identification with a login and transaction information to create process data that is processed by a hash algorithm;
- and
- wherein the authentication system memory contains the device identification prior to authentication;
- and
- wherein the device identification is created from processing a user signature and a random number, the same device identification is used to create the dynamic login identification for each transaction.
