Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing transaction verification through enhanced authentication are provided. A method performed by a computer system may include receiving one or more credentials to authenticate an application programming interface request received from a second computer system based on a first level of authentication, generating an additional authentication challenge to further authenticate the application programming interface request in response to detecting a change associated with the second computer system, issuing the additional authentication challenge to the second computer system, and processing the application programming interface request based on a result of the additional authentication challenge. In some examples, the additional authentication challenge may be encrypted using a key associated with the second computer system before issuance the additional authentication challenge. For example, the key may be a public key corresponding to a private key stored in a highly secure area on the second computer system.
