Abstract

A method of submitting information as part of an authentication operation includes generating a one time password that is intended for use in an authentication operation. The method further includes providing the one time password in a display field, wherein the display field is adapted to work in conjunction with a browser to submit the one time password in response to a request for the one time password. A method of controlling submission of identity information within an authentication system includes receiving a trust list from the authentication system. The trust list identifies entities that are authorized to receive the identity information. The method further includes receiving a request to submit the identity information to a candidate entity for an authentication operation, and providing the identity information to the candidate entity if the trust list indicates that the candidate entity is authorized to receive the identity information.
