Abstract
An ID vault computer control program detects when a user's browser navigates to a third-party website that requires a user ID and password. If it hasn't done so already, it automatically requests a decryption key for a local encrypted vault file from a network server by supplying a personal identification number (PIN) from the user through the input device, a copy of the GUID, and a signature of GUID using a private key for the root certificate. If a decryption key is returned from the network server, the local encrypted vault file is unlocked and automatically supplies a corresponding user ID and password to log-on to the third-party website without the user.
