1. A system for secure pass-set entry comprising:
- an authenticator device comprising;
a processor;
a display; and
a memory storing an authentication application, the authentication application configured to generate a pass-set menu comprising a matrix of images to output in visual format on the display, wherein each image in the matrix of images is designated with a unique numeric identifier, the authentication application further configured to output audio comprising the unique numeric identifier for each image; and
a headset device configured to receive the audio comprising the unique numeric identifier for each image from the authenticator device, the headset device comprising;
an output interface to output the audio comprising the unique numeric identifier for each image to the pass-set menu to a user;
a user input interface configured to receive user actions to navigate the pass-set menu and receive user menu selections; and
a data interface for receiving the audio comprising the unique numeric identifier for each image from the authenticator device and transmitting user menu selections to the authenticator device.
