WIPO ASSIGNS PATENT TO CHEN, CHUNG-CHIN FOR "METHOD OF IDENTITY AUTHENTICATION AND FRAUDULENT PHONE CALL VERIFICATION THAT UTILIZES AN IDENTIFICATION CODE OF A COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND A DYNAMIC PASSWORD" (CHINESE INVENTOR)

GENEVA, March 30 -- Publication No. WO/2011/034619 was published on March 24.

Title of the invention: "METHOD OF IDENTITY AUTHENTICATION AND FRAUDULENT PHONE CALL VERIFICATION THAT UTILIZES AN IDENTIFICATION CODE OF A COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND A DYNAMIC PASSWORD."

Applicants: CHEN, Chung-Chin (US).

Inventors: Chun-Yu Lin (CN).

According to the abstract posted by the World Intellectual Property Organization: "A method of identity authentication and fraudulent phone call verification uses an identification code of a communication device and a dynamic password. The "dynamic password" is directly sent to an Internet user via a dynamic web-page of a specific website instead of by means of a traditional telephone short message. Thus, the "dynamic password" cannot be copied from the spyware infected communication device of the Internet user. Furthermore, even if the "dynamic password" is intercepted or otherwise discovered by a hacker or intruder, authentication is still secure because the dynamic password must be sent back to the specific website via a short message or the like from the same communication device having the corresponding identification code that was initially input by the Internet user in order to generate the dynamic password."

The patent was filed on Sept. 20, 2010 under Application No. PCT/US2010/002567.
