Abstract
In one embodiment, a verification platform is adapted for communication with at least first and second devices. The verification platform receives a verification request from the first device, and determines if the first device has a registered association with the second device. If the first device has the registered association, the verification platform sends a notification to the second device regarding the verification request, receives verification input from the second device responsive to the notification, and grants or denies the verification request based at least in part on the verification input received from the second device. The verification request may be generated in conjunction with an attempted launch of a designated application on the first device, with user access to the application being controlled responsive to the granting or denying of the verification request. The first and second devices may comprise mobile telephones, computers or other types of devices.
