Grant: Idea to Innovation

Ryerson University

$10,000.00

Location-aware mobile payment systems

FY 2012-13

Summary
Mobile payments will be the prevailing method of payment in the near future. We have developed an innovative payment solution that will secure these mobile transactions by integrating the location of the payer into the authentication process. Our solution uniquely implements a three-factor authentication mechanism protecting the users from previously unsolved mobile attacks, including the relay attack. The Market Assessment project to which we are applying will allow us to examine different commercialization paths for our technology and to identify the best one. It will then help us to develop a business plan in accordance with the chosen commercialization path.
