Automatic log-in processing and password management system for multiple target web sites

摘要

An automatic log-in and password management system for on-line, electronic commerce systems is described. An automatic log-in module receives relevant transaction information from a user and processes this information for transactions to one or more target computers. The log-in procedure for access to a secure area within the target computer is stored as a script executable by the password management system. The processing system monitors user accesses to a target computer of the one or more target computers. A password management system detects a password entry requirement to initiate the transaction. The password management system accesses the appropriate password from a pre-stored database to obtain the password corresponding to the user identifier for the specific target client computer. The password management system then executes the stored log-in script and automatically populates the password or other access code into the appropriate access program of the client computer based on the user identifier.
