Systems and methods for distribution of selected authentication information for a network of devices

Abstract

A system for facilitating distribution of authentication information for a network of devices to be authenticated is provided. The system comprises: an authentication module configured to obtain an identity-proofing confidence score, based on data about identity-proofing of a user obtained from an authentication service system, wherein the data about identity-proofing comprises a type of identity document of the user and a presentation method used for verifying the user's identity by the authentication service system; and an insurance module in communication with the authentication module, configured to generate a plurality of security levels for the user, wherein each of the plurality of security levels is generated based on the identity-proofing confidence score and a credential authentication confidence score that is (1) obtained with aid of at least one device from the network of devices, and (2) determined based on a credential to be used for a transaction and a presence of an anti-replay feature about the at least one device, wherein a display is configured to show a plurality of coverage plans associated with the plurality of security levels to the user for selection, such that the authentication service system performed credential authentication according to a selected coverage plan.
