Abstract

A first login request of a user is received from a first login window. The first login request comprises a login name, a user identifier, and a challenge. The challenge is generated and received from a second login request to a product in a second login window. The user copies and pastes the challenge into the first login window. A central control system determines if the login name and the user identifier are valid. If the login name and user identifier are valid, a response to the challenge is generated based a private key and is displayed in the first login window. The response to the challenge is copied from the first login window and pasted as part of a second step the second login process. The second login process verifies the response to the challenge using a public key to allow the user access to the product.
