Authentication of a device through a constructed authentication token. Components of an authentication key are distributed across at least a device and a server, diminishing a likelihood that an individual account is compromised by an attack.

Aspects relate to a computer implemented anonymous credential method for credential abuse prevention and efficient revocation. The method includes acquiring a credential from an issuer at a user, registering the user and credential with an oblivious monitor, generating a user presentation token at the user using the credential, requesting presentation with the oblivious monitor by the user, wherein the user presentation token is transmitted to the oblivious monitor, verifying the user presentation token, wherein presentation is aborted if verification fails, transmitting, from the oblivious monitor, an oblivious monitor presentation token portion to the user in response to the verification passing, transmitting a combined presentation token to a verifier, wherein the combined presentation token includes the user presentation token and the oblivious monitor presentation token portion, and verifying the combined presentation token at the verifier.

A password authentication system includes an access control server configured to control access by a user computer to a resource dependent on authentication of user passwords associated with user IDs. The system further includes a plurality of authentication servers, storing respective secret values. For each user ID, the access control server stores a first ciphertext produced by encrypting the user password associated with that ID using a predetermined algorithm dependent on the secret values. In response to receipt of a user ID and an input password, the access control server communicates with the plurality of authentication servers to implement password authentication, requiring use of the secret values, in which a second ciphertext is produced by encrypting the input password using said predetermined algorithm. The access control server compares the first and second ciphertexts to determine whether the input password equals the user password to permit access to the resource.

The invention relates to an obfuscated program logic of machine executable instructions and a hardcoded cryptographic signing key. The obfuscated program logic further comprising a hardcoded first attribute value wherein execution of the machine executable instructions by the processor causes the obfuscated program logic to receive a request and in response to receiving the request evaluate whether the request is related to the hardcoded first attribute value. In case the request is related to the hardcoded first attribute value, then computing with the hardcoded first attribute value a response to the request and computing with the cryptographic signing key a signature, wherein the signature certifies the request for which the response was computed and certifies the authenticity of the response. Then generating and returning a presentation token comprising the response and the signature, and providing the presentation token to a receiver computer system.

In an approach for authenticating a user computer, connectable to a mobile network, a computer retrieves an attribute credential, the attribute credential certifying a set of user attributes and a device identifier for identifying the user computer to the mobile network. The computer requests a location credential, the location credential certifying a device identifier and location data indicating a current location of the user computer determined by the mobile network. Additionally, the computer produces an authentication token comprising the attribute credential, the location credential, the location data, and a proof for proving that the device identifier in the attribute credential equals the device identifier in the location credential. Furthermore, the computer sends the authentication token for authentication.

A method for managing unlinkable database user identifiers includes distributing to a first database a first encrypted user identifier, a first database identifier, and a first database user identifier; distributing to a second database a second encrypted user identifier, a second database identifier, and a second database user identifier; receiving from the first database a third encryption and a fourth encryption, the third encryption being formed from the first encrypted user identifier, the second database identifier, and a message comprised in the fourth encryption; decrypting the third encryption thereby obtaining a decrypted value; deriving a blinded user identifier from the decrypted value; and sending the encrypted blinded user identifier and the fourth encrypted value to the second server thereby enabling the second server to compute the second database user identifier from the encrypted blinded database user identifier and the decrypted fourth encrypted value.
摘要:
A method for deriving a verification token from a credential may be provided. The credential may be a set of attributes certified by an issuer to a user using a public key of the issuer. The method may comprise generating the verification token out of the credential and binding the verification token to a context string, wherein the verification token may comprise at least one commitment. A commitment may be a blinded version of an attribute. The method may also comprise generating an opening key for the verification token enabling a generation of a confirmation for a validity of the attribute.
摘要:
Methods are provided for producing an authenticated packaged product. A digital signature, dependent on unique message data for the product, is generated via a digital signature scheme using a secret signing key. The message data is provided on at least one of the product and packaging. The digital signature is provided on the other of the product and packaging, and the product is packed in the packaging. The digital signature can be generated via a fuzzy-message digital signature scheme having a verification algorithm for verifying the digital signature in relation to fuzzy data within a predetermined difference measure of the message data. Methods and systems for authenticating such packaged products are also provided.

A method and system for enabling performance of a transaction. A first representation of a transaction policy, which depicts transaction policy options for fulfilling the transaction policy is displayed by a client computer. After a user selects a first transaction policy option, the client computer displays a second representation of the transaction policy, depicting at least one mechanism pertaining to the first transaction policy option for satisfying the requirements of the first transaction policy option. After the user selects a first mechanism, the client computer displays evidence options for each requirement of the first transaction policy option. After the user selects an evidence option for each requirement of the first transaction policy option, the client computer sends to a server transaction enablement information that includes evidence dictated by the selected evidence options to enable the server to perform the transaction.
