Abstract
Methods and systems allow a user to log in to a device so that a number of apps become accessible on the device without the user repeatedly logging in to each different app as the user launches multiple apps. A mechanism of providing a master token with a quality score and providing sub-tokens for each app that can use the sub-token and the score quality to evaluate the level of security provided by the initial login allows each app to skip its own login process and provides a level of enhanced efficiency and convenience for the user. A method includes authenticating a user; creating a master token on the user device; creating a sub-token of the master token for an app launched on the device; the app skipping the login process of the app in response to the sub-token so that the app proceeds directly to validating a transaction.
