Abstract
A computer-implemented method for validating client authentication using timing data is described. A connection request is received from a client. Data are transmitted to the client. The client is instructed to retransmit the data. The retransmitted data are received from the client. Timing data that indicates a time to transmit the data to the client and receive the retransmitted data from the client are calculated. A protective element is applied to the timing data.
