Method and system for verifying an access request

摘要

Systems and methods for use in verifying a request for access to data in a system comprising a first module having access to a first trusted indicator of time, a second module having access to an untrusted indicator of time and a computing device having access to a second trusted indicator of time. The first module generates a password using at least the first trusted indicator of time. The second module receives a password associated with the request for access to data and validates the received password using at least the untrusted indicator of time. The second module then causes a message to be transmitted to the computing device, the message comprising data indicative at least of the untrusted indicator of time used to validate the received password. The computing device then generates data indicative of a comparison between the untrusted indicator of time and the second trusted indicator of time, and uses the generated data to provide said access to data.
