AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

An authenticating method including establishing trust between an authentication provider and service provider; establishing trust between the authentication provider and authentication application installed in a terminal. The authentication provider, for each session, receives an access code request and connection information from the terminal; generates and stores the access code; sends the access code to the terminal; receives the access code from the authentication application; indicates verification of the access code to the authentication application and terminal; receives from the authentication application a request to grant access to the terminal; instructs the service provider to grant access; and sends a confirmation of the granted access to the terminal. An authenticated session between the terminal and the service provider is setup for providing services to the terminal.
