Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus are provided to allow a user of a communications device to utilize one-time password generators for two-way authentication of users and servers, i.e., proving to users that servers are genuine and proving to servers that users are genuine. The present invention removes the need for a user to have a separate physical device, e.g., token, per company or service, reduces the cost burden on the companies and allows for two-way authentication via multiple access methods, e.g., telephone, web interfaces, automatic teller machines (ATMs), etc. Also, the present invention may be utilized in consumer and enterprise applications.
