Abstract

A system to authenticate a user and a computing device includes a processing unit and a database which cause the processing unit to receive input from the user to select a wireless network; the wireless network having a specific IP address whitelisted by a wireless network solution provider; display a web-portal of the selected wireless network; receive a phone number of the user; receive a specified code from the user; provide the user with a predefined number of digits of an identification number of the computing device for use as a password; receive the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device; and transmit a combination of the received predefined number of digits and a MSISDN to a server, the server transmits data to a telecom server and the telecom server initiates a search operation of the combination to authenticate the user on determining a match.

Claims (40)

1. A method for authenticating a user and a corresponding computing device, the method comprising:

receiving input from the user to select a wireless network through a selection module associated with the corresponding computing device, the wireless network having a specific IP address whitelisted by a wireless network solution provider;

displaying a web-portal of a selected wireless network through a display module of the corresponding computing device;

receiving a phone number of the user;

receiving a specified code from the user, the specified code being prompted on a display screen of the corresponding computing device;

providing the user with a predefined number of digits of an identification number of the corresponding computing device through an identification module, wherein the predefined number of digits are utilized as a password;

receiving the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the corresponding computing device through a password module associated with the corresponding computing device;

transmitting a combination of the received predefined number of digits and a mobile station international subscriber directory number (MSISDN) to a server, wherein the server transmits data to a telecom server and wherein the telecom server initiates a search operation of the combination to authenticate the user on determining a match; and

allowing the user to access the selected wireless network on confirming the match through an authentication module, wherein the authentication module integrates a pixel to a browser of the corresponding computing device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying a message of the match through a message module of the corresponding computing device.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the authentication module automatically identifies the corresponding computing device with the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device in conjunction with a wireless unit and a sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit is communicatively coupled with the wireless unit of the wireless service provider.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the authentication module automatically senses a pre-registered computing device and authenticates prior registered credentials of the user to provide direct access to the selected wireless network.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pixel stores the phone number of the user and last four digits of the identification number of the corresponding computing device.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying a message of a non-match through a message module of the corresponding computing device; and

preventing the user from access to the selected wireless network on confirming an absence of the match through the authentication module.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the authentication module automatically identifies the corresponding computing device with the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device in conjunction with a wireless unit and a sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit is communicatively coupled with the wireless unit of the wireless service provider.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the pixel stores the phone number of the user and last four digits of the identification number of the corresponding computing device.

9. A system to authenticate a user and a computing device of the user, the system comprising:

a processing unit configured to process data received from the computing device; and

a database configured to store machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processing unit cause the processing unit to: receive input from the user to:

receive input from the user to select a wireless network through a selection module associated with the computing device, the wireless network having a specific IP address whitelisted by a wireless network solution provider;

display a web-portal of the selected wireless network through a display module of the computing device; receive a phone number of the user;

receive a specified code from the user, the specified code being prompted on a display screen of the corresponding computing device;

provide the user with a predefined number of digits of an identification number of the computing device through an identification module, wherein the predefined number of digits are utilized as a password;

receive the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device through a password module associated with the computing device;

transmit a combination of the received predefined number of digits and a mobile station international subscriber directory number (MSISDN) to a server, wherein the server transmits data to a telecom server and wherein the telecom server initiates a search operation of the combination authenticate the user on determining a match; and

allow the user to access the selected wireless network on confirming the match through an authentication module, wherein the authentication module integrates a pixel to a browser of the corresponding computing device.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the database is further configured to cause the processor to:

display a message of a match through a message module of the computing device.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the authentication module automatically identifies the corresponding computing device with the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device in conjunction with a wireless unit and a sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit is communicatively coupled with the wireless unit of the wireless service provider.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the authentication module automatically senses a pre-registered computing device and authenticates prior registered credentials of the user to provide direct access to the selected wireless network.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the pixel stores the phone number of the user and last four digits of the identification number of the corresponding computing device.

14. The system of claim 9 , further comprising:

displaying a message of a non-match through a message module of the corresponding computing device; and

preventing the user from access the selected wireless network on confirming an absence of a match through the authentication module.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the authentication module automatically identifies the corresponding computing device with the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device in conjunction with a wireless unit and a sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit is communicatively coupled with the wireless unit of the wireless service provider.

16. The system of claim 14 , wherein the pixel stores the phone number of the user and last four digits of the identification number of the corresponding computing device.

17. The system of claim 9 , wherein the telecom server transmits a notification signal to the computing device of the user about the failed authentication on determining a non-match of the combination of MSISDN and the predefined number of digits of the identification number of the computing device.
