InTTrust OTP Solution

InTTrust solution “Trust-OTP” is a system that allows the software generation and validation of One Time Passwords in order to authenticate a user at the time of a transaction execution. The client of the system is available either as application for smartphones, or as library for linking with other applications. In order to accomplish this, it uses:

  • a common shared secret key that is generated during the initialization phase with collaboration between the end user and the Trust-Controller.
  • a challenge key that is generated by the Trust-Controller (using transaction data) at the time when a transaction is about to be executed and is presented to the user (QR code).
  • a timestamp that is shared between the Trust-Controller and the client application that is in the end user’s possession.

All this information is combined in order to generate a One Time Password that is presented to the user who is then required to enter it into the channel where the transaction was originated in order to complete the transaction.
