Abstract

A method includes receiving, via a server, a User ID and Password from a client device, and generating a Secret PIN (SPIN). Values for a Partial Password and an encrypted version of the SPIN (ESPIN) are determined. The method includes challenging a user of the client device with a challenge that prompts the user to enter the Partial Password and an ESPIN. An Additional Factor, e.g., a One-Time Password from a Shared Secret, is locked using the SPIN. The Partial Password and challenge unlock the Additional Factor. The method includes authenticating the identity using the unlocked Additional Factor. A system includes a server in communication with a client device, and a non-transitory memory device on which is recorded process instructions for authenticating the identity of a user of the client device. The server executes the instructions to thereby authenticate the identity of the user using the unlocked Additional Factor.
