Abstract: A computer-implemented method for remotely verifying an identity of a user is presented. The method comprises a first data processing device (120) receiving a live video stream (102) of the user from a second data processing device (140) via a video data connection (108) having a video bandwidth. Establishing a separate data connection (110) between the first (120) and second (140) data processing devices, the data connection (110) having a data bandwidth. The first data processing device (120) receiving, via the data connection (110), identifying data (104) captured from an identifying means from the second data processing device (140), or another data processing device. The first data processing device (120) determining first biometric data based on the identifying data (104) and comparing to second biometric data based on the live video stream (102).

Abstract: There is provided a computer-implemented method for securing a transaction. The method comprises receiving or determining 193 a plurality of sub-charges associated with the transaction; and determining 195 a password to secure completion of the transaction based on the plurality of the sub-charges.
