System, method, and apparatus for secure identity authentication

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions which, when executed by a processor of a first terminal device, cause the first terminal device to perform a method comprising:

• generating, by a parent process of the first terminal device, process information of a process of the first computer system before starting the process;
• transmitting, by the parent process, the process information to an authentication proxy of the first terminal device;
• after the process is started, requesting, by the process, the authentication proxy to authenticate the process;
• determining, by the authentication proxy, a path tracing the process to the authentication proxy, wherein the path comprises the parent process and the process;
• obtaining, by the authentication proxy and from the first terminal device, process information corresponding to the process;
• and
• determining, by the authentication proxy, that the process is authenticated, if the obtained process information corresponding to the process that has been started matches the process information transmitted to the authentication proxy before the process having been started.

A method for authentication, implemented by a terminal device, comprising:

• generating, by the terminal device, process information of a process of the terminal device before starting the process;
• after the process is started, requesting, by the process, the terminal device to authenticate the process;
• determining, by the terminal process, a path tracing the process to an authentication proxy, wherein the path comprises the process and a parent process corresponding to the process;
• obtaining, by the terminal device, process information corresponding to the process, wherein the process information corresponding to the process comprises the path tracing the process to the authentication proxy;
• and
• determining, by the terminal device, that the process is authenticated, if the obtained process information corresponding to the process that has been started matches the process information generated by the terminal device before the process having been started.

A method for authentication, comprising:

• receiving, by an authentication proxy of a terminal device, process information of a process before starting the process;
• and
• authenticating, by the authentication proxy of the terminal device, the process after the process is started, wherein authenticating the process comprises:
• determining, by the authentication proxy, a path tracing the process to the authentication proxy, wherein the path comprises the process and a parent process corresponding to the process;
• obtaining, by the authentication proxy and from the terminal device, process information corresponding to the process, wherein the process information corresponding to the process comprises the path tracing the process to the authentication proxy;
• and
• determining, by the authentication proxy, that the process is authenticated, if the obtained process information corresponding to the process that has been started matches the process information transmitted to the authentication proxy before the process having been started.
