Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an access security system and method, for example for securing access to data, objects or locations. According to one aspect there is provided a computer-implemented access security method, the method comprising: receiving, at a processor, a first authentication credential from a near-field communication, 'NFC' reader; generating a one-time token, at the processor, in dependence on the first authentication credential, the one-time token being in a form which is capable of reproduction by a user; and outputting the one-time token via an interface for use as an authentication credential in an access procedure. Other aspects relate to a user device for implementing such a method, a computer program product for storing instructions which, when executed, cause such a method to be implemented, and a system in which such a method can be used.
