  • Publication number: 20120221470
    Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus to minimize fraud at the user, merchant, and/or financial institution level. A control computer provides authentication and/or transaction processing. The control computer has access to databases comprising user, merchant, enrollment, transaction, duplicate, and fraudulent activity data. Parties may enroll in the system via an enrollment computer and conduct transactions through the system via a merchant computer. Users are issued hardware identification keys containing an encrypted user code. Access keys can be required in addition to an authorized user key to conduct certain actions. Keys are copy protected and can comprise a computer operating system. The hardware profile of client devices can be recorded. Parties may specify minimum and/or maximum security levels and restrict transactions. Transactions with parties can be authenticated without sending user personal data to the parties.
