Abstract

Dynamic risk communication associated with a computer device may include automatically detecting one or more security risk factors for the computer device based on current context information associated with the computer device. Whether an attempt is being made via the computer device to manipulate the one or more risk factors in an attempt to reduce a security level of a computer-implemented authentication procedure may be determined. Responsive to determining that the attempt is being made to manipulate the one or more risk factors, a new challenge for additional identification may be communicated for presentation on a user interface device of the computer device while suppressing one or more security risk factors from being presented on the user interface device. Responsive to determining that an attempt is not being made to manipulate the one or more risk factors, the new challenge and one or more security risk factors may be communicated.
