Abstract

See full text

Embodiments provide a system and method for network tracking. Through various methods of packet encapsulation or IP option filling, one or more packets of information can be tagged with a unique security tag to prevent unauthorized access. A user agent can be validated by an authentication server through acceptance of one or more user credentials. The authentication server can generate a security token that can be transmitted to the user agent. The user agent can generate a keystream from the security token, and portions of that keystream can be attached to the packets as the security tag. The tagged packets can be forwarded to an authenticator, who can recreate the keystream from a copy of the security token provided by the authentication server. If the tags generated from the authenticator match the tags on the tagged packet, the authenticator can strip the tag from the tagged packet and forward the packet on to its next network address.
