ABSTRACT:
The ability to validate the identity of a specific machine connected to a computerized network is provided. This involves validating MAC addresses, or any other form of digital identification that should be uniquely associated with a computer or user. This take places through the use of an identification registrar and an identification valuator. Such an identification validation system can be used with MAC addresses and can be used in conjunction with a system that records other information necessary to associate activity on a computer network with the validated MAC address. In this way, the specific computer or user associated with network activity can be determined, and it can be guaranteed that the identification has not been tampered with.
