Integration of verification tokens with mobile communication devices
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a validation entity computer, encrypted or signed identification information from a mobile communication device comprising (i) a housing, (ii) a first processor disposed within the housing, (iii) a first memory unit disposed within the housing, (iv) an input-output controller coupled to the first processor, (iv) a verification token disposed within the housing and communicatively coupled to the input-output controller, (v) a second processor separate from the first processor, and (vi) a second memory unit that is separate from the first memory unit and stores an encryption key, wherein the encrypted or signed identification information from the mobile communication device was encrypted or signed by the second processor using the encryption key;
validating, by the validation entity computer, the encrypted or signed identification information; and
after the validation entity computer validates the encrypted or signed identification, then transmitting a dynamic account number or verification value to the mobile communication device.

Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems pertaining to the verification of portable consumer devices are disclosed. In one implementation, a verification token is communicatively coupled to a computer by a USB connection so as to use the computer'"'"'s networking facilities. The verification token reads identification information from a user'"'"'s portable consumer device (e.g., credit card) and sends the information to a validation entry over a communications network using the computer'"'"'s networking facilities. The validation entity applies one or more validation tests to the information that it receives from the verification token. If a selected number of tests are passed, the validation entity sends a device verification value to the verification token, and optionally to a payment processing network. The verification token may enter the device verification value into a CVV field of a web page appearing on the computer'"'"'s display, or may display the value to the user using the computer'"'"'s display.

11. A validation entity computer comprising:
-
a processor; and a computer readable medium, the computer readable medium comprising code, executable by the processor, to implement a method comprising; receiving encrypted or signed identification information from a mobile communication device comprising (i) a housing, (ii) a first processor disposed within the housing, (iii) a first memory unit disposed within the housing, (iv) an input-output controller coupled to the first processor, (iv) a verification token disposed within the housing and communicatively coupled to the input-output controller, (v) a second processor separate from the first processor, and (vi) a second memory unit that is separate from the first memory unit and stores an encryption key, wherein the encrypted or signed identification information from the mobile communication device was encrypted or signed by the second processor using the encryption key; validating the encrypted or signed identification information; and after validating, transmitting a dynamic account number or verification value to the mobile communication device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
