Abstract
A verification and authorization method, system, and computer program product include verifying, via a receiving device that receives a verification sound packet, an identity of a trusted caller via the verification sound packet, the verification sound packet including an asymmetrically encrypted payload sent by the trusted caller.
Claims20
A computer-implemented verification and authorization method for verification of an identity of a trusted caller, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a receiving device, a verification sound from the trusted caller;
- verifying, via a computing device of the receiving device, the identity of the trusted caller via the verification sound that is received by the receiving device and that includes an asymmetrically encrypted payload sent by the trusted caller within the verification sound;
- and
- performing, via the computing device of the receiving device, an action that interacts with a second receiving device by using the verification sound based on a successful verification of the identity of the trusted caller, the action being encoded in instructions sent within the verification sound.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform:
- verifying, via a computing device of a receiving device that receives a verification sound, an identity of a trusted caller via the verification sound that is received by the receiving device and that includes an asymmetrically encrypted payload sent by the trusted caller within the verification sound;
- and
- performing, via the computing device of the receiving device, an action that interacts with a second receiving device by using the verification sound based on a successful verification of the identity of the trusted caller, the action being encoded in instructions sent within the verification sound.
A verification and authorization system, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory, the memory storing instructions to cause the processor to perform:
- verifying, via a computing device of a receiving device that receives a verification sound, an identity of a trusted caller via the verification sound that is received by the receiving device and that includes an asymmetrically encrypted payload sent by the trusted caller within the verification sound;
- and
- performing, via the computing device of the receiving device, an action that interacts with a second receiving device by using the verification sound based on a successful verification of the identity of the trusted caller, the action being encoded in instructions sent within the verification sound.
