Abstract

User bioelectrical authentication is provided. A bioelectrical configuration signature of a user in physical contact with a hardware token is received, via a token reader, during a low range radio frequency user authentication process to permit a secure transaction by the user. The bioelectrical configuration signature of the user is utilized as part of the low range radio frequency user authentication process to authenticate the user to perform the secure transaction.
