Computerized authorization system and method

A computerized authorization method, the computerized authorization method comprising:

• receiving an indication of an electronically-made request made to an electronic entity, from the electronic entity,
• sending the indication of the electronically-made request to m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices identified by m corresponding identifiers stored in a hardware storage device, wherein each of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices is associated with one, and only one user, of n users, where m and n are integers, n≧2, and n≦m, wherein each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device, of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices, is configured to receive the indication of the electronically-made request and configured to output an authorization of the electronically-made request by the user of the n users associated with the each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device, upon receipt of an authorization input from the user, of the n users, associated with the each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device;
• and
• receiving one or more authorizations of the electronically-made request from a corresponding one or more predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices;
• sending an indication of authorization of the electronically-made request to the electronic entity, if the one or more authorizations of the electronically-made request meet a predetermined criterion.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing a set of instructions that when executed cause a computer to perform a method comprising:

• receiving an indication of an electronically-made request made to an electronic entity, from the electronic entity,
• sending the indication of the electronically-made request to m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices identified by m corresponding identifiers stored in a hardware storage device, wherein each of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices is associated with one, and only one user, of n users, where m and n are integers, n≧2, and n≦m, wherein each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device, of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices, is configured to receive the indication of the electronically-made request and configured to output an authorization of the electronically-made request by the user, of the n users, associated with the each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device, upon receipt of an authorization input from the user, of the n users, associated with the each predetermined electronic authorization hardware device;
• receiving one or more authorizations of the electronically-made request from a corresponding one or more predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices of the m predetermined electronic authorization hardware devices;
• sending an indication of authorization of the electronically-made request to the electronic entity, if the one or more authorizations of the electronically-made request meet a predetermined criterion.
