Abstract
A system described herein may allow for the frictionless authentication of a user and/or user device (e.g., without requiring that the user provide login details, such as a user name and password). The frictionless authentication may occur via a licensed wireless network, even when the user device is actively engaged in communications with an unlicensed wireless network (and/or is not engaged in communications with the licensed wireless network).
