Abstract: Embodiments of website authentication including receiving a request from a user to view a website within a graphical user interface (GUI); generating a one time password (OTP); storing the generated OTP in a database; displaying the generated OTP on the GUI; verifying an identity of the user by receiving an identification datum from a communication device; receiving an entered OTP from the user; comparing the entered OTP with the generated OTP; and communicating whether the website is authenticated.

Abstract: A system, method and program product for defending against man in the middle (MITM) attacks directed at a target server. A system is provided that includes an activity recording system that records an incoming IP address, userid, and time of each session occurring with the target server; an activity analysis system that identifies suspect IP addresses by determining if an unacceptable number of sessions are occurring from a single incoming IP address during a predefined time period; and a countermeasure system for taking action against suspect IP addresses.
