AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINE PROVIDING WITHDRAWALS WITH A SINGLE AUTHENTICATION FACTOR

Abstract:

An automated teller machine includes a processor, a wireless communications module, a cash dispenser, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the automated teller machine to detect, using the wireless communications module, that an authentication token capable of wireless communication has been brought into communications range of the module and communicate with the authentication token to cryptographically authenticate the token and to receive information identifying an account associated with the token. Then, without receiving user-input providing a second authentication factor the automated teller machine initiates processing of a withdrawal of a specified quantity of cash from the account. The processing of the withdrawal includes determining, based on an automated assessment of compliance with one or more policies, that the withdrawal is executable without further authentication. The automated teller machine then dispenses, using the cash dispenser, the specified quantity of cash.
