AUTHENTICATION VIA BIOMETRIC PASSPHRASE
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by a computer-based system configured for granting authorizations, a first sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements, wherein the first sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements comprises a biometric passphrase;
registering, by the computer-based system, the biometric passphrase to a known user to create a registered biometric passphrase;
receiving, by the computer-based system, a transaction request comprising a second sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements;
comparing, by the computer-based system, the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase to result in a confidence factor of the comparison; and
authorizing, by the computer-based system, the transaction request based on the confidence factor of the comparison of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements with the registered biometric passphrase being above a threshold, wherein the comparison includes comparing the sequencing of the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements and the characteristics of each biometric data element of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase.

Abstract
A system, method and computer program product for granting access and/or an authorization are disclosed. For instance, a computer-implemented method may include receiving a first sequence of plurality of biometric data elements. The sequence of plurality of biometric data elements may comprise a biometric passphrase. The method may include registering the biometric passphrase to a known user and/or a transaction account. The method may include receiving a transaction request comprising a second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements. The method may include comparing the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements to the biometric passphrase to resulting in a confidence factor of the comparison. The comparison may include comparing the sequencing of the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements and the characteristics of each biometric data element of the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements to the biometric passphrase.

19. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system configured for granting authorizations, cause the computer-based system to be capable of performing operations comprising:
-
receiving, by the computer-based system, a first sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements, wherein the first sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements comprises a biometric passphrase; registering, by the computer-based system, the biometric passphrase to a known user to create a registered biometric passphrase; receiving, by the computer-based system, a transaction request comprising a second sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements; comparing, by the computer-based system, the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase to result in a confidence factor of the comparison; and authorizing, by the computer-based system, the transaction request based on the confidence factor of the comparison of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements with the registered biometric passphrase being above a threshold, wherein the comparison includes comparing the sequencing of the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements and the characteristics of each biometric data element of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase.

20. A system comprising:
-
a processor configured for granting authorizations, a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor, the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to be capable of performing operations comprising; receiving, by a computer-based system for granting authorizations, a first sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements, wherein the first sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements comprises a biometric passphrase; registering, by the processor, the biometric passphrase to a known user to create a registered biometric passphrase; receiving, by the processor, a transaction request comprising a second sequence of a plurality of biometric data elements; comparing, by the processor, the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase to result in a confidence factor of the comparison; and authorizing, by the processor, the transaction request based on the confidence factor of the comparison of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements with the registered biometric passphrase being above a threshold, wherein the comparison includes comparing the sequencing of the second sequence of plurality of biometric data elements and the characteristics of each biometric data element of the second sequence of the plurality of biometric data elements to the registered biometric passphrase.
