  • Publication number: 20190149653
    Abstract: Present invention provides a method, system and application for providing authentication of a mobile device user, based on the measurement of electromagnetic fields modified by a pre-established movement of a specific magnetic token associated to the user. This univocal process will be able to obtain new authentication factors, including something that the user owns (i.e., the token), something that the user knows (i.e., the interaction between the token and the device), and somewhere that the user is (i.e., where the interaction takes place).
