Abstract
A system for two-way authentication using two-dimensional codes is provided. The system includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is to generate a two-dimensional code to be used by a user of a mobile device for accessing a remote resource. The processor is to generate the code in response to a request from the remote resource for the code. The processor is further to receive an authentication request from the mobile device to authenticate the remote resource. The authentication request includes information obtained from the two-dimensional code, the information including an authentication request identifier. The processor is also to compare the authentication request identifier to an expected value to create an authentication indication and to transmit the authentication indication and an authentication credential to the mobile device to authenticate the user to the remote resource.
