Abstract:
HTTP Origin-Bound Authentication (HOBA) is a digital signature based
design for an HTTP authentication method. The design can also be
used in Javascript-based authentication embedded in HTML. HOBA is an
alternative to HTTP authentication schemes that require passwords and
therefore avoids all problems related to passwords, such as leakage
of server-side password databases.
