This document describes an extension of one-time password (OTP)
algorithm, namely the HMAC-Based One-Time Password (HOTP) Algorithm
as defined in RFC 4226, to support time-based moving factor.  The
HOTP algorithm specifies an event based OTP algorithm where the
moving factor is an event counter.  The present work bases the moving
factor on a time value.  A time-based variant of the OTP algorithm
provides short-lived OTP values, which are desirable for enhanced
security.

The proposed algorithm can be used across a wide range of network
applications ranging from remote Virtual Private Network (VPN)
access, Wi-Fi network logon to transaction-oriented Web applications.
The authors believe that a common and shared algorithm will
facilitate adoption of two-factor authentication on the Internet by
enabling interoperability across commercial and open-source
implementations.
