The present invention relates to a “double recognizing method by means of telephone number and identification code for online credit card transactions over the internet,” in which the credit card holder not only registers a “self-chosen code” by himself / herself for VBV (Verified By VISA) or MSC (MasterCard SecureCode) network identity verification but also registers another set of “telephone number and identification code” by himself / herself for serving as an exclusive personal double identity recognizing information for online credit card transactions. The credit card issuing bank registers and stores the set of “telephone number and identification code” on a double recognizing database after checking truth of the related identity certificate provided by the credit card holder. When the credit card issuing bank handles the online credit card transaction of the credit card holder over the network, the credit card issuing bank not only proceeds the check on the “self-chosen code” used in the original VBV or MSC verification system but also performs the double check on the “telephone number and identification code” used in the telecommunications transceiving processor platform of the internal credit card double recognizing computer system, for example by sending out a short message to the credit card holder for requesting him / her to immediately reply by another short message to his / her “telephone number and identification code.”

The present invention enables secure, valid card payments in credit transactions to be performed, preventing fraudulent card use even in cases of loss or theft of a card or of information theft. During a transaction authorization process using a transaction terminal disposed in a credit transaction member store and connected with a host computer, user validation or credit administration is carried out by using a portable communication terminal to input to the host computer identity information which has been previously registered in the portable communication terminal and / or location information for the portable communication terminal.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for secure value transactions between a customer and a merchant in a computerised environment being part of a global interconnecting network, such as the Internet. The method is adapted for utilising existing credit card processing infrastructure and includes the steps of: the customer obtaining a password, such as a PIN, from an intermediate transaction party and validating a server of the intermediate transaction party, the merchant having installed a code module function on its web-based service that generates a transaction identification number, and redirecting or presenting the customer with a link to the intermediate transaction party. The present invention is characterised by the intermediate transaction party presenting the customer with a password-protected account page to validate a purchase either by marking a correct validation or inputting the transaction identification number and amount.

Disclosed herein is a multi-step authentication-based electronic payment method using a mobile terminal. Order request information of a product is sequentially transmitted to an affiliated store server and a PG company server, and the product and a relevant affiliated store are verified. A mobile communication company server primarily authenticates the user, and the PG company server generates an OTP. The OTP is transmitted to allow the PG company server to secondarily authenticate the user using the OTP. The affiliated store server requests the PG company server to confirm information about a payment for the product and information about authentication of the user, and the PG company server confirms payment and authentication information. The affiliated store server requests the PG company server to process payment for the product, the PG company server requests the mobile communication company server to process payment, and the mobile communication company server processes requested payment.

A method and system for determining whether a situation is logically true or false upon occurrence of an event uses conditions associated with the situation in combination with current values of parameters related thereto to create and maintain a database of current thresholds each corresponding to respective limits which characterize the situation and at least one of which is a composite threshold that encapsulates multiple conditions that can be directly compared with a single parameter associated with an event. Responsive to an event, successive parameters associated with the event are compared with respective ones of the current thresholds until either there are no more thresholds to be compared or until it can be definitively established that the situation is logically true or false. Prior to processing a subsequent event, the current database thresholds are updated.

When the encrypted content is provided from a service provider to a user device, a usage log including information of the content usage fee is created in the user device. The created usage log is then sent to the service provider. The service provider compares the content usage fee in the received usage log with a predetermined threshold. If the content usage fee is found to exceed the predetermined threshold, the service provider requests a clearing center to inquire about the electronic money balance of the user. If it is determined that it seems difficult to collect money from the user, the transmission of a content key to the user is suspended. The clearing center also creates an issue log in which the effective period and an allowable amount of money spent by the user are set, and performs settlement processing only when the payment of the content usage fee has been made within the effective period.

Even if business processing is transaction, a standby-type cluster system copes with double faults in a short time while holding down the standby computer cost to the minimum. An execution server monitoring thread in a standby server periodically monitors an operation state of an execution server. Upon detecting time-out as a result of the monitoring, the thread resets the execution server, stops load balancing to an IP address of the execution server, recovers transaction of the execution server, and returns to monitoring of the operation state. If normality of the execution server is detected as the result of monitoring and an operation state in an execution server management table is “stop,” the thread starts the load balancing to the execution server and returns to the monitoring of the operation state.

A system and method for performing an electronic transaction, including registration, audit and trusted recovery features. A transaction request message is received from a registered user that includes an unblinded validated certificate, and a blinded unvalidated certificate. If the unblinded validated certificate is determined to be legitimate, then a transaction can be performed, and the blinded unvalidated certificate is validated to obtain a blinded, validated certificate that is sent to the user. An audit protocol can be used to further verify the legitimacy of the transaction request message, and a user can recover from a broken connection by replaying a protocol run.

In an exemplary embodiment, a system includes a memory operable to store a user account identifier associated with a user account and a mobile device identifier associated with a mobile device. The memory is also operable to store a first user credential and a second user credential, the second user credential, wherein the second user credential comprises user input data captured by a sensor. The system includes a network interface operable to receive a request to authenticate a requesting user. The system also includes a processor operable to determine information included in the request to facilitate authentication of the requesting user and whether the information included in the request matches the information associated with the user account. The processor is further operable to authenticate the requesting user if the request is associated with the user account and information included in the request matches the information associated with the user account.
