Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 10:
11. A method comprising:
sending, by a microprocessor, a first nonce;
receiving, by the microprocessor, obfuscated biometric data, wherein the obfuscated biometric data is generated by an obfuscation process that uses the first nonce and first biometric data, and wherein the first biometric data is generated from a biometric of a user;
reversing, by the microprocessor, the obfuscation process by using the first nonce to produce the first biometric data;
comparing, by the microprocessor, the first biometric data to known biometric data of the user;
in response to the first biometric data being within a threshold of the known biometric data, authenticating, by the microprocessor, the user; and
segmenting, by the microprocessor, the obfuscated biometric data into a plurality of biometric data points;
wherein the obfuscation process divides the first nonce into a plurality of nonce segments and wherein each of the plurality of nonce segments is used to obfuscate each of a corresponding plurality of the biometric data points to generate the obfuscated biometric data.
