Abstract: A system for authenticating a sender of a response to an authentication request includes an authentication server, an identity server configured to receive biometric data of a user, a central ID system configured to create or receive a username and/or password, and a first user device associated with a first user. The first user device is configured to create a first user ID that includes at least a first username and a first biometric data. When an authentication request is sent to a user device by the authentication server the user device responds with a user ID. The authentication server then queries at least one or both of the central ID system and the identity server to certify the accuracy of the user ID to assure it matches the first user ID before (1) accepting the response, or (2) permitting the first user to access confidential information. The systems and methods may also include blockchain authentication or tuple space authentication.
