TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are provided for authenticating users to secure services or apps utilizing reversed hands-free and/or continuous two-factor authentication. When auser desires to access a secure service or app for which she/he is already registered, the user, having a registered mobile computing device in proximity to his or her presence, comes within a threshold distance of a computing device that includes the desired secure service or app. The computing device authenticates the particular mobile computing device as associated with the particular registered user that utilized that mobile device during registration. Subsequent to such device authentication, the user is able to login to the service or app by simply providing his or her user credentialsat a login form associated therewith. Two-factor authentication in accordance with embodiments hereof is more secure and more efficient than traditional authentication methodologies. 提供了用于利用反向免提和/或连续双因素认证来认证用户以保护服务或应用的系统、方法和计算
