Abstract
Location-based authentication may be provided by an access management system on a server. The location-based authentication may determine whether a device should be granted access to a resource. The resource may either be located on or remote from the server. The location-based authentication may provide an additional authentication factor that is based on a past location of a user and/or device associated with the user requesting authentication. The past location may be associated with a user-configured question. The user-configured question may be provided to the device for an additional level of security. An answer received in response to a user-configured question may be compared to a user-configured answer that is associated with the user-configured question. In other examples, the answer may be compared to one or more possible answers that are determined by the access management system.
