Abstract
A system and a method are provided for facilitating an account protection check for the security of sets of credentials. The system and method allow a service provider to automatically lock a credential set of at least one user account if fraudulent activity is detected. A third-party server of a service provider requests a token from the system before the authentication process. User metadata is analyzed to detect potentially fraudulent activity from the user account. If the credential set is in a locked status or unlocked status, at least one remote server of the system respectively relays an invalidation token or a validation token to the third-party server. If the invalidation token is relayed to the third-party server, the service provider does not go through the authentication process. If the validation token is relayed to the third-party server, the service provider proceeds with the authentication process as standard procedure.
