Abstract
An authentication system including a first server configured to store identifiers of respective users in association with respective pseudonyms, and a second server configured to store templates of the respective users in association with the respective pseudonyms. Input is received from a given user in conjunction with an authentication attempt. The first server is configured to determine if a first portion of the received input is associated with one of the user identifiers stored in the first server. If the first portion of the received input is associated with one of the user identifiers stored in the first server, the corresponding pseudonym is provided from the first server to the second server. The given user is authenticated based on a determination as to whether or not a second portion of the received input matches one of the stored user templates corresponding to the pseudonym provided to the second server.
