Abstract: Systems and methods of authenticating a first party to a second party are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method may include an authenticating party: receiving, from an electronic device of a first party, a request to generate authenticating indicia to authenticate the first party to a second party; generating the authenticating indicia; transmitting, over a network, the authenticating indicia to the electronic device of a first party; receiving, from an electronic device of the second party, received authenticating indicia; activating a restriction on use of the electronic device of the second party; determining that the received authenticating indicia is the same as the authenticating indicia; receiving a communication from the electronic device of the first party indicating that the electronic device for the first party is logged in to the same computer network as the first party; and releasing the restriction on the electronic device of the second party.

Abstract: Systems and methods for user identification and authentication are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of authenticating a first party to a second party may include the following: (1) receiving, from one of an electronic device of a first party and an electronic device of a second party, a request to generate authenticating indicia; (2) using at least one of a plurality of computer processors, generating the authenticating indicia; (3) transmitting, over a network, the authenticating indicia to the electronic device of a first party and to the electronic device of the second party; (4) receiving, from an electronic device of the second party, an indication that the second party has confirmed that the first party is authentic; and (5) storing an identity of the first party, the second party, and the authenticating indicia in a database.

Abstract: A system for managing a project and its associated information over a network is presented. The system includes a project information database associated with the network and a project information management tool. The project information database stores information associated with a project being carried out by a corporate entity having at least one sub-entity. The project information management tool includes a project information module to manage the information associated with the project, and at least one cross-sub-entity project-component module. The cross-sub-entity project module manages and tracks overall information and sub-entity specific information, of the information associated with the project, related to the project-component.
