Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a request to recover access to an account of a first user, the request being received from a computing device of a second user. A determination is made that the first user and the second user are recognized as social connections by a social networking system. The first user is authenticated through the computing device of the second user based at least in part on the first user and the second user being recognized as social connections. A login session is established between the computing system and the computing device of the second user upon authenticating the first user.
