Abstract
Systems and methods for permitting software presence/configurations to function as a factor in a multi-factor authentication scheme so that a user's access to a different software program/application is conditioned on the presence of certain pre-specified software or software configurations that would otherwise not be necessary for access and/or operation of the different software program/application. Generally, by confirming the presence/configuration of the pre-specified software on a computing device, the system ensures that a user, in one embodiment, may only access the different software program/application with the proper configuration of the pre-specified software.
