Method and apparatus for accelerated authentication
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a hardware processor from a user device, first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion of the user credentials for the first user;
determining, by the hardware processor, whether the first portion of the user credentials is valid; and
when the first portion of the user credentials is valid, then determining, by the hardware processor, to send a service response authorized by the first portion to the user device,wherein sending of the service response authorized by the first portion occurs before receiving the second portion of the user credentials from the user device.

Abstract
Techniques for accelerated authentication include receiving first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion. It is verified whether the first portion of user credentials is valid. If the first portion of user credentials is valid, then second data that indicates a valid value for the second portion of user credentials for the first user is sent. Other techniques include receiving first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion of user credentials for the first user. A first message that indicates the first portion of user credentials is sent to a remote process that initiates authentication of the first user based on the first portion of user credentials before receiving second data that indicates the second portion of user credentials for the first user.

6. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a hardware processor of a user device, first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion of the user credentials for the first user, wherein the first data is received in response to a sign-in prompt to the first user to provide the user credentials to authenticate the first user; before receiving second data that indicates the second portion of the user credentials for the first user, determining, by the hardware processor, to send a first message that indicates the first portion of the user credentials to a remote process that initiates authentication of the first user based on the first portion of the user credentials; and receiving a service response authorized by the first portion, wherein the receiving of the service response authorized by the first portion occurs before a submit button on the user device is activated to send the second portion of the user credentials from the user device. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one hardware processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one hardware processor, cause the apparatus to at least; receive first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion of the user credentials for the first user, wherein the first data is received in response to a sign-in prompt to the first user at a user device to provide the user credentials to authenticate the first user; before receiving second data that indicates the second portion of the user credentials for the first user, determine to send a first message that indicates the first portion of the user credentials to a remote process that initiates authentication of the first user based on the first portion of the user credentials; and receive a service response authorized by the first portion, wherein receiving of the service response authorized by the first portion occurs before a submit button on the user device is activated to send the second portion of the user credentials from the user device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
