Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving user input indicating a first user selection of a first form of biometric authentication from a plurality of forms of biometric authentication, providing a first interface for display on a user device, the first interface corresponding to the first form, receiving first biometric data, the first biometric data being provided using the first interface, and selectively enabling communication between the user device and a back-end system based on the first biometric data.
Claims21
1-20. (canceled)
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- providing, for presentation on a user device, a menu indicating one or more suggested authentication forms that are appropriate for an environmental context that is determined based on a current location of the user device;
- receiving an indication of an authentication form that is selected through the menu;
- providing, for presentation on the user device, an authentication interface that corresponds to the selected authentication form;
- receiving authentication data provided through the authentication interface;
- and
- selectively enabling user access to data based on the authentication data.
A system comprising:
- a data store for storing data;
- and
- at least one processor configured to interact with the data store, the at least one processor being further configured to execute computer-readable instructions to perform operations comprising:
- providing, for presentation on a user device, a menu indicating one or more suggested authentication forms that are appropriate for an environmental context that is determined based on a current location of the user device;
- receiving an indication of an authentication form that is selected through the menu;
- providing, for presentation on the user device, an authentication interface that corresponds to the selected authentication form;
- receiving authentication data provided through the authentication interface;
- and
- selectively enabling user access to data based on the authentication data.
One or more computer readable media storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
- providing, for presentation on a user device, a menu indicating one or more suggested authentication forms that are appropriate for an environmental context that is determined based on a current location of the user device;
- receiving an indication of an authentication form that is selected through the menu;
- providing, for presentation on the user device, an authentication interface that corresponds to the selected authentication form;
- receiving authentication data provided through the authentication interface;
- and
- selectively enabling user access to data based on the authentication data.
