Abstract: It is intended to achieve a user authentication system capable of forcibly presenting a content to a user. Provided is a content presentation-type authentication system designed to allow a client to perform a content presentation-type user authentication in which user authentication is performed in such a manner that a plurality of pattern elements arranged in a given pattern are presented as a presentation pattern to a user who intends to be authenticated, and a one-time password derivation rule is used as a password of the user and applied to certain ones of the pattern elements located at specific positions in the presentation pattern to create a one-time password, and a content is forcibly presented to the user in connection with the user authentication.
Abstract: Disclosed is an off-line user authentication system, which is designed to present a presentation pattern to a user subject to authentication, and apply a one-time-password derivation rule serving as a password to certain pattern elements included in the presentation pattern at specific positions so as to create a one-time password. An off-line authentication client pre-stores a plurality of pattern element sequences each adapted to form a presentation pattern, and a plurality of verification codes created by applying a one-time-password derivation rule to the respective presentation patterns and subjecting the obtained results to a one-way function algorithm. A presentation pattern is created using one selected from the stored pattern element sequences, and presented to a user. A one-time password entered from the user is verified based on a corresponding verification code to perform user authentication. The present invention provides an off-line matrix authentication scheme with enhanced security.

Abstract: Disclosed is a user authentication system, which is designed to present a presentation pattern to a user subject to authentication, and apply a one-time-password derivation rule serving as a password of the user to certain pattern elements included in the presentation pattern at specific positions so as to create a one-time password. An authentication server is operable to generate a pattern seed value adapted to be combined with a user ID so as to allow a presentation pattern to be uniquely determined, and transmit the generated pattern seed value to an authentication-requesting client. The authentication-requesting client is operable to display a presentation pattern created based on an entered user ID and the received pattern seed value and in accordance with a given pattern-element-sequence creation rule, so as to allow the user to enter therein a one-time password, and transmit the entered one-time password to the authentication server.
