Zusammenfassung:	A system and method is provided for geo-location-based user authentication and data access control. An exemplary method includes receiving a request from a mobile device to access a user account and user data where the request includes current geo-location data that indicates a current geographical location of the mobile device/ An authentication server then determines whether the current geo-location data is within at least one geo zone that indicates approved geographical areas where the mobile device can access the user account and data.
