Abstract

User authentication techniques based on geographical locations associated with a client device are provided. An example method for authentication of the client device includes receiving an authentication request from the client device. The method may include establishing current geographical location of the client device based on metadata received from the client device. The method may further include establishing a trusted tolerance geographical area based on historical location area associated with the client device. After establishing the trusted tolerance geographical area, the method may proceed with determining whether the current geographical location of the client device is within the trusted tolerance geographical area. The method may further include authenticating the client device based on the determination that the current geographical location of the client device is within the trusted tolerance geographical area.
