Description

Authentication method, terminal and server

The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201510508977.9, entitled "Identification Method, Terminal and Server", filed on August 18, 2015, the entire contents of .

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of terminal technologies, and in particular, to an identity verification method, a terminal, and a server.

Background technique

At present, there are two commonly used methods for client authentication, one is password authentication and the other is fingerprint authentication.

Password authentication means that after the user inputs the account information, the user also needs to provide a password for identity verification. The terminal matches the password provided by the user with the preset password. If the matching is successful, the identity verification succeeds, otherwise the identity verification fails.

Fingerprint authentication is performed after the user inputs the account information, and the user also needs to provide fingerprint information for identity verification. The terminal matches the fingerprint information provided by the user with the preset fingerprint information. If the matching is successful, the identity verification succeeds, otherwise the identity verification fails.

However, the above technical solution has the following drawbacks:

1. For password authentication, although it is convenient, it is less secure and can be maliciously obtained by hacking means (such as input method recording, attempting with other client login passwords, etc.).

2. For fingerprint authentication: Although it is highly secure, correspondingly, it is necessary to increase the hardware cost. If the user has multiple terminal devices, each device has a higher cost of configuring the fingerprint hardware.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the identity request includes but is not limited to the identity information and the location information, as long as the function of the solution can be implemented. The attribute information of the terminal is applicable to this scheme.

In addition, the server 400 can also prompt the at least one other terminal that meets the condition to the terminal, so that the user can select the target terminal according to actual needs, and the server 400 selects the target terminal for the terminal in at least one other terminal when receiving the selection command. The user experience is enhanced by increasing the flexibility and diversity of the target terminal selection method.

In the above technical solution, preferably, the method further includes: a third receiving unit 416, receiving initial fingerprint information of the terminal from any other terminal before receiving the identity verification request of the terminal connected to the server 400 And the second sending unit 418, before the controlling the target terminal having the fingerprint verification function to verify the user fingerprint information received by the target terminal, sending the initial fingerprint information of the terminal to the selected a target terminal for performing fingerprint verification on the target terminal.

In this technical solution, the initial fingerprint information of the user from any other terminal received before the identity verification is performed is stored, and the initial fingerprint information is sent to the control target terminal before the received user fingerprint information is verified. The selected target terminal is used for the target terminal to match the user fingerprint information with the initial fingerprint information, that is, as long as the user who has entered the fingerprint information on other terminals having the fingerprint verification function can perform identity When verifying, select the terminal that has entered the fingerprint information as the target terminal.

The technical solution of this embodiment is specifically described below with reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 :

Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of an identity verification system in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

The embodiment provides a fingerprint terminal (terminal) when the client (such as WeChat, Alipay, etc., or a certain software) is logged in to the non-fingerprint terminal (the terminal does not support the fingerprint authentication, that is, the terminal). Support fingerprint authentication, that is, the target terminal) login method for authentication. The non-fingerprint terminal is connected to the fingerprint terminal through a remote server. As shown in FIG. 5, the fingerprint terminal includes: a fingerprint module, a storage module, a communication module, and a processor CPU; the non-fingerprint terminal includes: a storage module, a communication module, and a processor CPU; The communication connection is made through the server.

FIG. 6 shows a flow chart of an identity verification method according to still another embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 6, the flow of the identity verification method according to still another embodiment of the present invention includes:

In step 602, the user starts the client on the non-fingerprint terminal.

In step 604, the user inputs the client account (ie, identity information) in the non-fingerprint terminal.

Step 606: The client on the non-fingerprint terminal requests fingerprint verification (that is, generates an identity verification request according to the received identity verification command), and notifies the server of the account to be logged in on the device (ie, sends the identity verification request to the location) Said server connected to the terminal).

Step 608: The server sends a fingerprint verification request to the client on the fingerprint terminal corresponding to the account (that is, the server controls the target terminal with the fingerprint verification function to verify the user received by the target terminal according to the identity verification request of the terminal. Fingerprint information).

Step 610: The client on the fingerprint terminal returns a fingerprint verification result to the server (that is, the server receives the fingerprint information verification result from the target terminal).

Step 612: The server returns a fingerprint verification result to the client on the non-fingerprint terminal (ie, the terminal receives the fingerprint information verification result from the server).

Step 614: If the fingerprint verification is passed, the client on the non-fingerprint terminal logs in; otherwise, the account verification fails.

In this embodiment, when the user owns multiple terminals, as long as one of the terminals supports fingerprint verification, other terminals can indirectly use their fingerprint verification function to obtain fingerprint level security without increasing hardware costs.

The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, and the fingerprint verification is performed for the terminal without increasing the hardware cost of the terminal. Moreover, when the user owns multiple terminals, as long as one of the terminals supports fingerprint verification, the terminal can be used as the target terminal, and other terminals are It can indirectly use its fingerprint verification function for authentication. Compared with related technologies, it not only improves the security and reliability of authentication, but also saves production costs, thereby improving the user experience.

The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and various modifications and changes can be made to the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and scope of the present invention are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
