Abstract
In certain embodiments, systems and methods are provided for authenticating a user of a computing device. In some embodiments, a request to authorize a transaction associated with a user may be received, and a current location of the user may be determined. A determination of whether a threshold proximity exists (between the current location of the user and at least one location of at least one known associate) may be performed. The authorization request may be approved based on the determination of the threshold proximity. As an example, the known associate of the user may be determined from among a plurality of associates based on a geographical relationship between the location of the known associate and the current location of the user. The authorization request may be approved in response to a determination that the threshold proximity exists between the user's current location and the known associate's location.
