Architecture for central e-commerce authorization and verification using
multiple Keys/Pins storage and central action verification means. Action Verification
is provided between Action Initiating Party (12) and a central Verification
Authority (16), wherein action includes a transaction, message, command,
approval, identification request, financial transaction and data transmittal. Wherein
action is authorized and initiated by an Entity (14) which can be an individual,
company, vendor or other organization, which authorizes by giving a PIN, the execution,
processing or delivering of an action. The action can be requested and/or transmitted
and/or delivered electronically or mechanically. Verification information is stored
in a Verification Authority system, accessed by Entities and the Action Initiating
parties. The Entity stores in the Verification Authority sets of Personal Identification
Numbers (PINS/Keys), and as a verification option, personal data parameters. The
Entity is also able to generate automatically multiple Entity PINs/Keys. Verification
includes validation of Entity's identity and the authorization of an action by
comparing action PINs/Keys to a PIN/Key stored in the Verification Authority.
