Authentication method and system
Provided is a computer implemented method for performing mutual authentication between an online service server and a service user, including: (a) generating, by an authentication server, a server inspection OTP; (b) generating, by an OTP generator, a verification OTP having the same condition as the server inspection OTP and using the same generation key as an OTP generation key and a calculation condition different from a calculation condition is applied or a generation key different from the OTP generation key is used and the same calculation condition as the calculation condition used for generating the server inspection OTP is applied to generate a user OTP; and (c) generating, by the authentication server, a corresponding OTP having the same condition as the user OTP and comparing whether the generated corresponding OTP and the user OTP match each other to authenticate the service user.
1. A computer implemented method for authenticating a service user accessing an online service server includes the steps of:
receiving, by an authentication server, access terminal connection information of the service user accessing the online service server from the online service server, wherein the access terminal connection information is server-terminal connecting information generated and managed by the online service server in order to manage consecutive data transmission/reception between the online service server and an access terminal of the service user;
generating, by an OTP generator of the service user, a user OTP by using the access terminal connection information when the access terminal connection information is received from the authentication server; and
generating, by the authentication server, an inspection OTP for authenticating the service user by using the access terminal connection information and comparing whether the generated inspection OTP and the user OTP transferred from the online service server match each other to authenticate the service user.
