Abstract
A method for verifying, by a receiver during a call, an alleged affiliation of an initiator with an organization comprises: receiving an initiator request comprising one or more first identifiers; generating a verification secret in response to the initiator request; sending the verification secret to the initiator; storing the verification secret in a database; receiving a receiver request to verify an alleged verification secret, the receiver request comprising one or more second identifiers; if there is a match between the second identifier(s) and the first identifier(s), comparing the alleged verification secret to the verification secret; and sending to the receiver: a positive response if there is a match between the alleged verification secret and the verification secret; or a negative response if there is no match between the second identifier(s) and the first identifier(s) or there is no match between the alleged verification secret and the verification secret.
