    摘要: A technique provides authentication codes to authenticate a user to an authentication server. The technique involves generating, by an electronic apparatus (e.g., a smart phone, a tablet, a laptop, etc.), token codes from a cryptographic key. The technique further involves obtaining biometric measurements from a user, and outputting composite passcodes as the authentication codes. The composite passcodes include the token codes and biometric factors based on the biometric measurements. Additionally, the token codes and the biometric factors of the composite passcodes operate as authentication inputs to user authentication operations performed by the authentication server. In some arrangements, the biometric factors are results of facial recognition (e.g., via a camera), voice recognition (e.g., via a microphone), gate recognition (e.g., via an accelerometer), touch recognition and/or typing recognition (e.g., via a touchscreen or keyboard), combinations thereof, etc.

    摘要: A technique for detecting unauthorized copies of a soft token that runs on a mobile device includes generating a set of random bits on the mobile device and providing samples of the set of random bits, as well as token codes from the soft token, for delivery to a server during authentication requests. The server acquires the set of random bits of the mobile device, or learns the set of random bits over the course of multiple login attempts. Thereafter, the server predicts values of the samples of the set of random bits and tests actual samples arriving in connection with subsequent authentication requests. Mismatches between predicted samples and received samples indicate discrepancies between the random bits of the device providing the samples and the random bits of the mobile device, and thus indicate unauthorized soft token copies.

    摘要: An improved technique for assessing the security status of a device on which a soft token is run collects device posture information from the device running the soft token and initiates transmission of the device posture information to a server to be used in assessing whether the device has been subjected to malicious activity. The device posture information may relate to the software status, hardware status, and/or environmental context of the device. In some examples, the device posture information is transmitted to the server directly. In other examples, the device posture information is transmitted to the server via auxiliary bits embedded in passcodes displayed to the user, which the user may read and transfer to the server as part of authentication requests. The server may apply the device posture information in a number of areas, including, for example, authentication management, risk assessment, and/or security analytics.

    摘要: A technique controls a soft token running within an electronic apparatus. The technique involves providing an initial series of authentication codes based on a first set of machine states. The initial series of authentication codes is provided from the electronic apparatus to a server through a forward channel to authenticate a user. The technique further involves receiving a command from the server through a reverse channel between the electronic apparatus and the server. The reverse channel provides communications in a direction opposite to that of the forward channel. The technique further involves changing the first set of machine states to a second set of machine states in response to the command, and providing a new series of authentication codes based on the second set of machine states. The new series of authentication codes is provided from the electronic apparatus to the server through the forward channel for user authentication.

    摘要: An improved technique provides scheduled data transfer between a mobile device and a server. The mobile device combines token codes generated by a soft token with sequences of auxiliary bits and displays the combinations to users as passcodes. Users may then copy the passcodes to their computers for authenticating to a server on a remote network. As the passcodes include both token codes and sequences of auxiliary bits, a communication channel is established whereby the auxiliary bits as well as the soft token codes are transmitted from the mobile device to the server.

    摘要: Access control systems are provided that mediate access to derivatives of sensitive data. A method is provided for processing a data request from a client, the data request comprising a client identifier and an indication of the intended use of the data, by receiving the data request from the client; providing the client identifier and indicated use to an access manager, wherein the access manager assesses a risk of providing access to the data for the indicated use; if the access manager grants access for the indicated use, receiving one or more keys with corresponding computing restrictions from the access manager; computing a result; and providing the result to the client, wherein the provided result comprises the derivative of sensitive data. The access manager grants the access for the indicated use, for example, based on a risk score.
