Enhanced authentication using a secure document

A method for location-based authentication using a document and a device location of a user device, comprising:

• obtaining, by a device, a document image, the document depicting location information associated with an owner of the document;
• obtaining, by the device, location information associated with the user device;
• processing, by the device, the document image to obtain a location based on the location information, wherein processing the image includes at least one of:
• performing, by the device, optical character recognition using the document image to obtain the location, or
• scanning, by the device, a machine-readable code depicted in the document image to obtain the location;
• and
• determining, by the device, the device location based on the location information;
• determining, by the device, a confidence score based on the location and the device location;
• determining, by the device, whether the confidence score satisfies a threshold;
• and
• performing, by the device, an action based on determining whether the confidence score satisfies the threshold.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• detect an authentication event associated with an access attempt for an account, the account being associated with a trusted user;
• obtain, from a user device, a document image based on detecting the authentication event, the document being an identification document issued by a trusted entity;
• extract information from the document image, the information including location information associated with an owner of the document;
• extract location information associated with the user device, the location information including at least one of:
• information indicated via metadata associated with the document image, or
• positioning information indicated by the user device;
• and
• determine a confidence score based on the location information and the location information,
• wherein the confidence score indicates a likelihood that the user device is associated with the owner of the document;
• and
• authenticate the access attempt based on the confidence score satisfying a threshold.
