Abstract

Abstract Known methods for being capable of carrying out, with the same data carrier, various authentication processes are based on non-standardized data carriers (smart cards) on which there are stored two different access codes. Per first authentication process, a first user generates a first user code which is compared to a version, transformed by way of a transformation, of a first access code stored on the data carrier. Per second authentication process, a second user generates a second user code which is compared to a version, transformed by way of the transformation, of a second access code stored on the data carrier. By now having the transformation in this case take place, per other authentication process, by way of another transformation, there may be used, for different authentication processes, the same worldwide standardized data carrier on which there is stored only one access code. The first/second user then once again generates the first/second user code, which is compared to a version transformed by way of a first/second transformation of the only access code stored on the data carrier.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 213 words
Method for carrying out, with the same data carrier, various authentication processes, on which data carrier there is stored at least one code, which method comprises a first authentication process including the steps of receiving a first code stored on the data carrier and a second code originating from a user, carrying out at least one of the following transformations a first transformation of the first code into a transformed first code, and a second transformation of the second code into a transformed second code, comparing said first and second codes thereto rounding off the first authentication process, and a second authentication process comprises the steps of receiving a third code stored on the data carrier and a fourth code originating from a user, carrying out at least one of the following transformations a third transformation of the third code into a transformed third code, and a fourth transformation of the fourth code into a transformed fourth code, comparing said third and fourth codes thereto rounding off the second authentication process, characterised in that the first code and the third code are equal, whereas the second code and the fourth code are different, and with at least one of the respective first and second transformations differing from the respective third and fourth transformations.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 213 words
Method for carrying out, with the same data carrier, various authentication processes, on which data carrier there is stored at least one code, which method comprises a first authentication process including the steps of receiving a first code stored on the data carrier and a second code originating from a user, carrying out at least one of the following transformations a first transformation of the first code into a transformed first code, and a second transformation of the second code into a transformed second code, comparing said first and second codes thereto rounding off the first authentication process, and a second authentication process comprises the steps of receiving a third code stored on the data carrier and a fourth code originating from a user, carrying out at least one of the following transformations a third transformation of the third code into a transformed third code, and a fourth transformation of the fourth code into a transformed fourth code, comparing said third and fourth codes thereto rounding off the second authentication process, characterised in that the first code and the third code are equal, whereas the second code and the fourth code are different, and with at least one of the respective first and second transformations differing from the respective third and fourth transformations.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
Method according to claim 1, characterised in that the first transformation differs from the third transformation, with the second transformation being equal to the fourth transformation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
Method according to claim 1, characterised in that the second transformation differs from the fourth transformation, with the first transformation being equal to the third transformation.

Method according to claim 1, characterised in that the first transformation differs from the third transformation, and the second transformation differs from the fourth transformation.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 24 words
Method according to claim 1, characterised in that at least one of the transformations depends on a fifth code stored on the data carrier.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 235 words
System for carrying out, with the same data carrier, various authentication processes, on which data carrier there is stored at least one code, which system comprises a first authentication process is provided with first receiving means for receiving a first code stored on the data carrier and a second code originating from a user, first transforming means for carrying out at least one of the following transformations a first transformation of the first code into a transformed first code, and a second transformation of the second code into a transformed second code, first comparing means for comparing said first and second codes thereto rounding off the first authentication process, and a second authentication process is provided with second receiving means for receiving a third code stored on the data carrier and a fourth code originating from a user, second transforming means for carrying out at least one of the following transformations a third transformation of the third code into a transformed third code, and a fourth transformation of the fourth code into a transformed fourth code, second comparing means for comparing said third and fourth codes thereto rounding off the second authentication process, characterised in that the first code and the third code are equal, whereas the second code and the fourth code are different, and with at least one of the respective first and second transformations differing from the respective third and fourth transformations.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 235 words
System for carrying out, with the same data carrier, various authentication processes, on which data carrier there is stored at least one code, which system comprises a first authentication process is provided with first receiving means for receiving a first code stored on the data carrier and a second code originating from a user, first transforming means for carrying out at least one of the following transformations a first transformation of the first code into a transformed first code, and a second transformation of the second code into a transformed second code, first comparing means for comparing said first and second codes thereto rounding off the first authentication process, and a second authentication process is provided with second receiving means for receiving a third code stored on the data carrier and a fourth code originating from a user, second transforming means for carrying out at least one of the following transformations a third transformation of the third code into a transformed third code, and a fourth transformation of the fourth code into a transformed fourth code, second comparing means for comparing said third and fourth codes thereto rounding off the second authentication process, characterised in that the first code and the third code are equal, whereas the second code and the fourth code are different, and with at least one of the respective first and second transformations differing from the respective third and fourth transformations.
