Problems solved by technology

[0007] A problem with the described authentication scheme is that it only verifies or verifies a claimed identity, but does not attempt to identify a user based on user characteristics
Although precautions can be taken to keep one's password secret, the user may inadvertently reveal it or choose a password that may be easily guessed by others

Embodiment Construction

[0026] figure 1 is a schematic block diagram of a biometrically authenticated data communication network according to an embodiment of the present invention. The network includes a biometric system 10 coupled to a host computer 12 by a communication link, such as a universal serial bus (USB). Switch node 14 is coupled to host 12 and network server 22 . Switch node 14 communicates with host 12 and web server 22 over the public Internet, a private intranet, and / or other similar connections known in the art.

[0027] Biometric system 10 preferably includes circuitry and / or logic for receiving a biometric sample from an individual and verifying his or her identity based on the sample. The biometric sample is preferably a physiological or motor characteristic of the individual that is used to verify his or her identity. These biometric samples may include: fingerprints, voice models, models of the iris and / or retina, hand geometry, signature verification, keystroke analysis and / ...

Abstract

A user authentication system and method for a data communication network that helps ensure that a user accessing the network resources is indeed the person having a claimed identity. The user's identity is verified by a biometric system by examining the user's physiological or behavioral characteristic. User identification information needed for accessing the network resources is stored in the biometric system and not released until the user's identity is verified. Upon verification of the user's identity, the user identification data is provided to a switching node for determining the VLANs that the user may access.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of Provisional Application No. 60 / 274,113, filed March 8, 2001, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. This application also contains subject matter related to that disclosed in U.S. Pat. The content of the author is hereby incorporated by reference. field of invention [0003] The present invention relates generally to user authentication schemes for communication networks, and more particularly to authenticating users of virtual local area networks based on physical characteristics associated with the users. Background technique [0004] A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a logical subnetwork within a spanned LAN that differentiates services based on policy rather than physical location. Traditionally, VLAN membership is assigned to end systems regardless of the identities of the users of those systems. VLAN membership is assigned, for example, by compar...
