Abstract

Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for user authentication in separate authentication channels. A token module is configured to create a unique token in response to receiving user credentials from an unknown user for a secure interface of a third party system. An identity module is configured to log into the secure interface using the received user credentials, and submit the unique token to a private input element located behind the secure interface. A match module is configured to receive the unique token from the private input element and a user identifier associated with the unknown user from the third party system. The match module is configured to associate the received user credentials with the user identifier based on the unique token. An access module is configured to display information associated with the user identifier to the unknown user.
