Abstract
A method, and an apparatus performing the method, is provided by authenticating a mobile device communicably connectable to a wireless network by an authentication parameter from a secure transaction server (STS), as a mobile device authenticator; providing an STS correlation between a personal identification entry (PIE) and the mobile device authenticator; and inputting, by a user, the PIE and a provider action, to the mobile device authenticator to transmit a transformed secure user authenticable authorization request to the STS over the wireless network to authorize an action with a provider.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- authenticating a mobile device communicably connectable to a wireless network by an authentication parameter from a secure transaction server (STS), as a mobile device authenticator;
- providing an STS correlation between a personal identification entry (PIE) and the mobile device authenticator;
- and
- providing an authentication function upon a user attempting an access to a provider as an action with the provider, the provider including a physical environment, a computer system, or any combinations thereof, according to one or more authentication services including an authentication service of:
- receiving by the STS, a provider authentication request, in response to the user attempted access to the provider computer system,
- transmitting by the STS a transaction token to the provider computer system, in response to the received provider authentication request,
- inputting, by a user, the PIE and the transaction token, to the mobile device authenticator to transmit a transformed secure user authenticable authorization request to the STS over the wireless network as a user authorization of the action with the provider, based upon the PIE, the transaction token and the authentication parameter,
- verifying, by the STS, the provider authentication request and the user authorization to access the provider,
- transmitting, by the STS, a user authentication result to the provider computer system, according to the verifying, and
- authorizing the user access to the provider computer system, according to the user authentication result transmitted from the STS.
