SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED AUTHENTICATION

摘要

In example embodiments, a system and method for automated authentication are provided. A service provider system receives a message triggered by an application operating on a user device of a user. A contact identifier corresponding to the user device is determined from the message. A reply message that includes a token is transmitted to the contact identifier. A return token is received from the application that intercepted the reply message and extracted the token without user intervention. The return token is compared to the token sent in the reply message. Based on the return token matching the sent token, the contact identifier is verified as corresponding to the user device.
