One-Way Fingerprint Authentication

1WFThent was designed and produced for bank check issuers - individuals, corporations and other organizations. This product can prevent the payment of altered and counterfeit bank checks.

To insure that a bank check's amount and payee information remains confidential and protected from any type of database security breach 1WFThent uses one-way fingerprints for authentication - Ethent does not use actual bank check amount or payee information for authentication. See One-Way Fingerprints to learn more about one-way fingerprints.

1WFThent can be used with any type of account that uses checks - checking, credit, savings and credit card accounts.

How 1WFThent Works

  • You enter check transaction information on a form provided at    Ethent's Web site.
  • Ethent calculates the check's one-way fingerprints for the    amount and payee.
  • Ethent inserts the calculated one-way fingerprints into your    check issue file at Ethent.
  • There is nothing else you need to do.

    This product is very easy to use - create sample transactions now.

    Additional 1WFThent Features

  • Check Number PINs - you can select and write a PIN on each of your checks - counterfeiters won't know the correct PIN for any of your checks. See how Check Number PINs work now.
  •  
  • Web-Based Warning Bands - you can create up to 5 web-based warning bands for each of your checking accounts - counterfeiters won't know this information without access to your checks. See how Web-Based Warning Bands work now.
  • How Ethent's Free Authentication Works

    When your bank receives one of your checks (or its equivalent) your bank will be able to authenticate the check's amount and payee for Free at Ethnet's Web site.
  • A bank check with your account number is presented to your    bank.
  • Your bank supplies information from the check to Ethent.
  • Ethent calculates the one-way fingerprints for the check's    amount and payee.
  • Ethent compares the calculated one-way fingerprints to the    one-way fingerprints in your check issue file.
  • Ethent supplies the results to your bank.
  • Your bank decides whether or not to pay the check.
  • If the check's calculated one-way fingerprints do not equal the one-way fingerprints in your check issue file the check is probably an alteration or counterfeit.
