Abstract
A mobile client system initiates a wireless communication with a transaction system and receives a digital certificate from the transaction system in response. The digital certificate includes an embedded geographic location of the transaction system. The mobile client system also compares the geographic location of the transaction system with a current geographic location of the mobile client system and establishes an encrypted communication channel with the transaction system upon determining that the location of the transaction system is in proximity of the current location of the mobile client system. The mobile client system further sends the user credentials to the transaction system via the encrypted communication channel. Upon successful authentication of the mobile client system via the user credentials, the mobile client system performs a transaction with the transaction system using a graphical user interface of the client system.
