Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for authenticating a user based at least in part on a location of the user or a location of a user device are described. A method includes: receiving a login request including a user identifier associated with a user; transmitting a request for location information of a user device associated with the user; causing computer-executable code deployed to the user device to generate a location-based modifiable digital fingerprint comprising a first encoded value based on a unique identifier of the user device and a second encoded value based on a first location information of the user device; receiving the location-based modifiable digital fingerprint from the user device; verifying that the location information from the location-based modifiable digital fingerprint corresponds to a second location; and providing the user access to the computing device.
