VERIFICATION PUSH NOTIFICATIONS THROUGH WEB-BROWSER

Abstract:

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for verification push notifications provided through a web-browser application. An authentication system provides a web-client Software Development Kit (SDK) to enable verification push notifications through a client-side application. Some client-side applications, such as web-browser applications (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, etc.) may not support certain features to provide for secure storage of data and encryption keys that are used to provide for verification push notifications. For example, some client-side applications may utilize a local storage that stores data in plain text that can be easily accessed and read, thereby presenting a security threat. The web-client SDK provided by the authentication system provides for secure storage of data and encryption keys to enable a client-side application to securely provide verification push notifications.
