System and method for enabling a user to create an account on an application or login into the application without having the user reveal their identity
A system and method for enabling a user to create an account on an application and login into the application, without having the user reveal their identity, is described herein. The system is configured for registering a user by receiving a set of biometric samples of the user, processing the set of biometric samples to compute a Secret-Key (S1) corresponding to the user, generating a Unique-Number (N1) using a random number generation algorithm, applying a Function (F1) to the Secret-Key (S1) and the Unique-Number (N1), to compute a Public-Key (P1). Once the user is registered, the system is configured to receive an account creation request from an application. Further, the system is configured to receive a biometric sample from the user in real-time and compute the Secret-Key (S2) for authenticating the user. Once the user is authenticated, the system may generate an Application User ID based on the authentication and transmit to the application a request to enable the user to create an account on the application or login to the application, wherein the request comprises the Application User ID.
