Abstract

The method integrates the dynamic and authoritative posture of an authenticated user, a registered device, and a registered service provider as a conclusive proof of identity recognition for affiliation of associated contextual attribution and referential integrity. In addition to relieving the user of the burden of remembering multiple passwords for a plurality of services, the method provides a means to facilitate an affiliation oriented architecture for a broad spectrum of web and cloud based services with affiliation aware content streaming, leveraging the affiliation score as a key trust metric. The method provides protection from user-agnostic delegation and impersonation of identity, social engineering, and compromised passwords, which are exploited by numerous strains of landed malware to launch multi-stage coordinated cyber-attacks on consumer accounts and enterprise systems. The method of affiliation based on identity recognition provides authoritative, contextual, and consensual user information, of relevance in a live transaction, to the service provider.
