Patent

CA 2250100

Access is granted to a portion of a computing system, such as to a configuration menu of a telephone system. In order to grant access, a password is received from a user. A variable password is also calculated. The variable password varies with time. For example, the variable password varies with a current date and with a time of day stored by the computing system. The password received from the user is compared with the calculated variable password. When the password received from the user is equal to the calculated variable password, access is granted.

Un accès est accordé pour une partie d'un système informatique, un menu de configuration d'un système téléphonique par exemple. Afin d'obtenir une autorisation d'accès, un utilisateur transmet un mot de passe. Un mot de passe variable est également calculé. Ce mot de passe variable, qui varie avec le temps, change, par exemple, selon une date en cours et une heure de la journée mémorisées par le système informatique. Le mot de passe envoyé par l'utilisateur est comparé au mot de passe variable calculé. Lorsque le mot de passe envoyé par l'usager correspond au mot de passe variable calculé, l'accès est accordé.
