A method of authenticating a network client to a relying party computer via a computer server comprises the computer server receiving a transaction code from a token manager via a first communications channel. The network client is configured to communicate with a token manager which is configured to communicate with a hardware token interfaced therewith. The network client is also configured to communicate with the relying party computer and the computer server. The computer server also receives a transaction pointer from the relying party computer via a second communications channel that is distinct from the first communications channel. Preferably, the transaction pointer is unpredictable by the computer server. The computer server transmits an authorization signal to the relying party computer in accordance with a correlation between the transaction code and the transaction pointer. The authorization signal facilitates authentication of the network client to the relying party computer.

Procédé d'authentification d'un client réseau auprès de l'ordinateur d'une partie utilisatrice via un serveur informatique qui consiste, pour ledit serveur, à recevoir un code de transaction émanant d'un gestionnaire de jetons via un premier canal de communication. Le client réseau est conçu pour communiquer en interface avec un jeton de matériel. Il est également conçu pour communiquer avec l'ordinateur de partie utilisatrice et le serveur informatique. Ce serveur informatique reçoit en outre un pointeur de transaction de l'ordinateur de partie utilisatrice via un second canal de communication distinct du premier canal de communication. Le pointeur de transaction n'est de préférence pas soumis à la capacité de prédiction du serveur informatique. Le serveur informatique transmet un signal d'autorisation à l'ordinateur de partie utilisatrice selon une corrélation entre le code de transaction et le pointeur de transaction. Ce signal d'autorisation facilite l'authentification du client réseau auprès de l'ordinateur de la partie utilisatrice.
