Patent number: 12056230Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for split one-time password digits for secure transmissions to selected devices. Authentication credentials and one-time password operations by a service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may be compromised by malicious computing attacks or other actions that compromise the security of data and communications. To increase security of the data within a communication and authentication operations, a split one-time password system may be implemented. A user may preset a number of known digits for a one-time password with a profile and/or account. When multifactor authentication is required, randomized digits may be generated using a hash algorithm and may be transmitted to the user with instructions for completion of the one-time password. The user may be required to specifically enter the known digits with the randomized digits to properly pass the multifactor authentication.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2021Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: PAYPAL, INC.Inventors: George Chen Kaidi, Antony Amalraj Morais
