More Information
Summary:Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for signing into multiple accounts with a single gesture. Multiple sessions may be generated for multiple user identities based on a single authentication gesture, such as providing a phone number or email and a texted or emailed one-time code or providing a fast online identity (FIDO) key and an unlock gesture. Resources, such as applications, need not, but may be multi-identity aware to support signing into multiple accounts with a single gesture. Users may utilize their multiple identities without any additional sign-ins. Resources or session managers may receive multiple session artifacts concurrently or separately without additional sign-ins. Resources may indicate a capability to receive multiple session artifacts, for example, in registration or call parameters. Multiple identities may be revealed only after verification, for example, to prevent divulging identities to third parties aware of usernames such as phone numbers and email addresses.
