Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for providing device-based authentication for secure online access are provided. An authentication request is received from an online service. The authentication request may be associated with a login request received by the online service from a user. The authentication request may further indicate a list of device identifiers for computing devices connected to a provider network and previously designated by the user as authorized to access the online service. Communication logs collected from the provider network are analyzed to determine whether the login request originated from one of the authorized computing devices based on the list of device identifiers. If it is determined that the login request originated from one of the authorized computing devices, an indication is returned to the online service that the login request was received from an authorized computing device.
