How priviti works

Priviti uses a unique
multi-channel authorisation
and authentication solution

Partitioned messages sent through two different channels ensures information availability is authenticated by the genuine Authoriser and only to the permitted Recipient.

How Priviti works

STEP 1

  • 1.1 A Linking Code is inserted by the Authoriser into their device.
  • 1.2 The 1st Channel Message consisting of an APP ID and the Linking Code is sent from the Authoriser’s application to the Linking Server.

STEP 2

  • 2.1 The Authoriser enters their Secret Code into the Receiver’s device application.
  • 2.2 The 2nd Channel Message consisting of the Secret Code and the same Linking Code is sent from the Receiver’s device application to the Linking Server.

STEP 3

  • 3.1 The time-limited Linking Codes received at the Linking Server via the two independent channels are verified.
  • 3.2 If the Linking Codes match, the Linking Server forwards the received APP ID and Secret Code to the Vault Server for verification.
  • 3.3 If the combined APP ID and Secret Code received at the Vault Server matches the combined APP ID and Secret Code record on file in the Vault Server, the sensitive/confidential information is made available to the permitted Receiver.
