Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for using mobile network authentication factors to authenticate a mobile device.
Claims20
A mobile virtual network operator (“MVNO”)-hosted mobile authentication platform comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- receive, from a registered mobile device of the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform, an access request to access an enterprise network associated with the MVNO;
- determine that the access request is received from a member of the enterprise network;
- gather device data and authentication factor data for the registered mobile device;
- assign a network address for accessing the enterprise network over a dedicated connection for the enterprise network through the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform based on the device data and the authentication factor data to the registered mobile device;
- control access of the registered mobile device to the enterprise network over the dedicated connection based on the network address assigned to the registered mobile device;
- inspect subsequent requests from the registered mobile device to access one or more resources of the enterprise network including one or more access-restricted enterprise resources of the enterprise network using the dedicated connection;
- look up user permissions of a user of the registered mobile device;
- and
- control access of the registered mobile device to access the one or more resources for the subsequent requests based on the user permissions and the network address assigned to the registered mobile device.

A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from a registered mobile device of a MVNO -hosted mobile authentication platform, an access request to access an enterprise network associated with the MVNO;
- determining that the access request is received from a member of the enterprise network;
- gathering device data and authentication factor data for the registered mobile device;
- assigning, by the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform, a network address for accessing the enterprise network over a dedicated connection for the enterprise network through the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform based on the device data and the authentication factor data to the registered mobile device;
- controlling, by the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform, access of the registered mobile device to the enterprise network over the dedicated connection based on the network address assigned to the registered mobile device;
- inspecting subsequent requests from the registered mobile device to access one or more resources of the enterprise network including one or more access-restricted enterprise resources of the enterprise network using the dedicated connection;
- looking up user permissions of a user of the registered mobile device;
- and
- controlling access of the registered mobile device to access the one or more resources for the subsequent requests based on the user permissions and the network address assigned to the registered mobile device.

A system comprising:
- one or more servers configured to host a mobile virtual network operator (“MVNO”)-hosted mobile authentication platform for an enterprise network;
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors of a server, cause the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform to:
- receive, from a registered mobile device of the MVNO -hosted mobile authentication platform, an access request to access an enterprise network associated with the MVNO;
- determine that the access request is received from a member of the enterprise network;
- gather device data and authentication factor data for the registered mobile device;
- assign a network address for accessing the enterprise network over a dedicated connection for the enterprise network through the MVNO-hosted mobile authentication platform based on the device data and the authentication factor data to the registered mobile device;
- control access of the registered mobile device to the enterprise network over the dedicated connection based on the network address assigned to the registered mobile device;
- inspect subsequent requests from the registered mobile device to access one or more resources of the enterprise network including one or more access-restricted enterprise resources of the enterprise network using the dedicated connection;
- look up user permissions of a user of the registered mobile device;
- and
- control access of the registered mobile device to access the one or more resources for the subsequent requests based on the user permissions and the network address assigned to the registered mobile device.
