Heres another idea I have been toying with. I am putting it out there
cause I dont have the time at the moment to develop it (I have two
software projects I am working on, unless one of the dgc's would like
to donate me some money to develop it then I will make it a priority,
send me an email). ICQ ( and hopefully trillian in the future )
has a sdk. ICQ can also speak crypto ( so can trillian ), 128 bit
I think. And I think ICQ has a java version for portability.
A website could use P2P for user verification. The user logs in
to the website then a cgi, jsp app, etc sends an encrypted ICQ message
to the user with some phrase, pin, etc. The user gets the encrypted ICQ
message identifying who the message is from and accepts or rejects it.
Anyway, the phrase, pin, etc can be copied and pasted into another
text entry field on the website he is accessing to complete the
logon sequence. Likewise the websites cgi, jsp app will get a
response back from the ICQ sdk that the user rejected his message
or isnt logged onto ICQ.
I think that would be a nifty application. I have some other
interesting ideas for P2P. I am putting this one out there
for mutual benefit.
