A network user is authenticated to another network entity by using a first program to receive user input validation information, and store a user credential. A second program receives information, such as a random number, from the other entity. The first program receives an input transferring the information to it, transmits the information to the authentication server, and receives an identifier of the other entity, other information, and authentication policy requirements from the authentication server. It then transmits the input validation information corresponding to the received authentication policy requirements to the authentication server, and in response receives a request for a user credential. It signs a message, including the transferred information and the received other information, with the stored user credential, and transmits the signed message to the authentication server to authenticate the user.

To provide a user signature on a network transaction, a security server receives transaction information representing a transaction between a network user and a network site, such as a website, directly from the network site. The security server calculates a one-time- password based on the received transaction information and a secret shared by the security server and the network site, but not by the user. The security server transmits the calculated one-time-password for application as the user's signature on the transaction. The one-time- password is independently calculable by the network site based on the shared secret.
