Abstract

In certain embodiments, a distance threshold may be adjusted, and authentication may be performed based on the adjusted distance threshold. In some embodiments, an authentication request from a first user device associated with a user may be received. First location information of the first user device and second location information of a second user device may be obtained. A distance between the first and second user devices may be determined based on the first and second location information. A distance threshold may be adjusted based on whether such location information is obtained over the same wireless network, whether such information is obtained over a public wireless network, whether an IP address from which such location information is obtained matches a stored IP address, or other criteria. The user may be authenticated based on a comparison of the distance to the adjusted distance threshold.
