Abstract
The invention provides systems, methods, and computer-readable media for multi-factor authentication (MFA) using device and carrier validation. A user device generates an attested blob containing cryptographic keys and a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC)-originated International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI), which is transmitted to a cloud-based MFA service. The service validates the attested blob, coordinates with an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) service, and executes an Extensible Authentication Protocol-Authentication and Key Agreement (EAP-AKA) process with the carrier network to establish mutual trust. Authentication data, including a validated phone number independent of the device's stored number, is securely stored in a cloud wallet. The invention enhances security by mitigating risks such as spoofing, replay attacks, and SIM swapping, providing a novel authentication framework compatible with modern networks.
