Abstract: A system and method for generating a unique identifier for a user. A processor hosted by the system transmits a prompt for user selection of a digital image and receives the selected digital image from the user. The received digital image is stored in a data storage device. The processor identifies a first code associated with the user. The processor embeds the first code into the digital image and generates a first modified digital image in response. The first modified digital image is also stored in the data storage device. The processor transmits the first modified digital image to the user over a data communications network. The modified digital image is then used as the unique identifier for the user.
