ABSTRACT:
Computer-implemented methodology is described which allows any user to access a "network client" machine (e.g., PC, ATM machine, cell phone, or the like) which is connected to a network but which does not know the authentication of the user. With only the user's password, the client machine is able to initiate a communication session with a server and identify the user to the server as the person who the server truly expects. The method allows both the client and the server to each identify the other as authentic (not a middle man or imposter)--that is, without compromise in security along the communication link. In this manner, the user can access information from the true server in a secure manner and bring that information down to the local client, for instance, for use in a JAVA application.
