Abstract
A system, apparatus, method, and machine readable medium are described for performing authentication using environmental data. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: collecting environmental sensor data from one or more sensors of a client device; using a geographical location reported by the device to collect supplemental data for the location; comparing the environmental sensor data with the supplemental data to arrive at a correlation score; and responsively selecting one or more authentication techniques for authenticating a user of the client device based on the correlation score.
