Managing state information across communication sessions between a client and a server via a stateless protocol. The server delivers to the client a cacheable web page with a hyperlink to non-cacheable embedded content. In the hyperlink to the non-cacheable embedded content, the server adds a token or an identifier uniquely associated with the user. When the user obtains embedded content from the cached web page via the hyperlink, the identifier is also sent to the server. Upon receipt of the identifier from the client, the server accesses the stored state information. In this manner, the server manages state information related to the client across communication sessions without the use of cookies as long as the client caches the web page with the unique identifier.

Protecting a user against web spoofing in which the user confirms the authenticity of a web page prior to submitting sensitive information such as user credentials (e.g., a login name and password) via the web page. The web page provides the user with an identifiable piece of information representing a shared secret between the user and the server. The user confirms the correctness of the shared secret to ensure the legitimacy of the web page prior to disclosing any sensitive information via the web page.

Combining a browser cache and cookies to improve the security of token-based authentication protocols. A client stores a first portion of an authentication token as information (e.g., a cookie) in a first memory area. The client stores a second portion of the authentication token as server-inaccessible information (e.g., cached web content) in a second memory area. A server obtains the first and second portions from the client to recreate the authentication token to authenticate the client.

An authentication ticket is validated to ensure authenticated communications between a client and an online service provider. In an embodiment an authentication request is received from a user agent associated with the client and the authentication request includes a set of identification information and a set of authentication information. Additionally, it is determined that the set of identification information and the set of authentication information are associated with a user and an authentication ticket is created including a user identification and an authentication, indicating to the online service provider that the user is authenticated to access one or more online services. Further, a validation token is embedded into the authentication ticket that provides enhanced verification that the access provided by the online service provider is authenticated.

A permission level associated with an associate's web access is identified. A relationship ticket is obtained from an authentication server and a request is generated to set the identified permission level. The request and the relationship ticket are sent to a Web server and a success code is received from the Web server if the requested permission level is established.

Systems, methods, computer programs, and devices are disclosed herein for deploying a local trusted service manager within a secure element of a contactless smart card device. The secure element is a component of a contactless smart card incorporated into a contactless smart card device. An asymmetric cryptography algorithm is used to generate public-private key pairs. The private keys are stored in the secure element and are accessible by a trusted service manager (TSM) software application or a control software application in the secure element. A non-TSM computer with access to the public key encrypts and then transmits encrypted application data or software applications to the secure element, where the TSM software application decrypts and installs the software application to the secure element for transaction purposes.

Embodiments of proxy authentication and indirect certificate chaining are described herein. In an implementation, authentication for a client occurs via a proxy service. Proxy service communicates between client and server, and caches security tokens on behalf of the client. In an implementation, trustworthiness of certificate presented to a client to establish trust is determined utilizing a signed data package which incorporates a plurality of known certificates. The presented certificate is verified without utilizing root certificates installed on the client device.

The subject invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates creating HIP challenges (HIPs) that can be readily segmented and solved by human users but that are too difficult for non-human users. More specifically, the system and method utilize a variety of unique alteration techniques that are segmentation-based. For example, the system and method employ thicker arcs or occlusions that do not intersect characters already placed in the HIP. The thickness of the arc can be measured or determined by the thickness of the characters in the HIP. In addition to increasing the thickness, the arcs can be lengthened because longer arcs tend to resemble pieces of characters and may be harder to erode. Usability maps can be generated and used to selectively place clutter or occlusions and to selectively warp characters or the character sequence to facilitate human recognition of the characters.
