Abstract

See full text

A method and system for token based user access authentication enables secure user access to a web server using a token, such as a smart card, and provides a single sign-on mechanism which does not employ a user name and password in the log on process. Instead, a smart card with a certificate enables the user at a client workstation to log on by authenticating himself or herself to the smart card with a Personal Identification Number (PIN). The smart card then uses mutual authentication to verify the identity of the cardholder and the access server and establishes a secure link between the client workstation and the access server with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
