Dynamic multi-factor authentication for premises access

A system, comprising:

• at least one computing device that is configured to communicate with a premises monitoring system located at a premises, the at least one computing device comprising:
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one computer-readable memory storing a plurality of instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, are configured to cause the at least one processor to:
• determine that a plurality of authentication factors associated with a person at the premises monitoring system have been satisfied;
• determine a respective weight of a plurality of weights for each of the plurality of authentication factors;
• determine a security factor for the premises monitoring system, the security factor being a numerical value that is determined based on one or more conditions of the premises monitoring system distinct from the plurality of weights;
• calculate an authentication value for the person based on the security factor and the plurality of weights for the plurality of authentication factors where at least one of the plurality of weights is adjusted by the security factor;
• determine that the authentication value meets a predefined authentication threshold;
• in response to determining that the authentication value meets the predefined authentication threshold, deem the person authenticated;
• and
• perform at least one action in response to the person being deemed authenticated.

• determining that the authentication value meets a predefined authentication threshold;
• in response to determining that the authentication value meets the predefined authentication threshold, deeming the person authenticated;
• and
• performing at least one action in response to the person being deemed authenticated.
