Systems and methods for uniquely identifying and regularly authenticating users at login

A method for uniquely identifying and regularly authenticating users at login, comprising:

• receiving, by an authentication computer program executed by a backend electronic device and from a workstation computer program executed by a workstation, a user identifier for a user as part of a login attempt and user login activity data associated with the login attempt;
• calculating, by a user trust computer program executed by the backend electronic device, a user trust score based on the user login activity data;
• determining, by the user trust computer program, that the user trust score is below a threshold, wherein the threshold is dynamic and varies based on a time of day, a day of the week, and/or a user location;
• receiving, by the user trust computer program, an additional authentication factor from the user;
• validating, by the user trust computer program, the additional authentication factor;
• and
• authorizing, by the user trust computer program, the login attempt to the workstation and a user session on the workstation.

A system, comprising:

• a user workstation executing a workstation computer program;
• and
• a backend electronic device executing an authentication computer program and a user trust computer program;
• wherein:
• the workstation computer program receives a user identifier for a user as part of a login attempt and user login activity data associated with the login attempt and provides the user identifier and the user login activity data to the authentication computer program;
• the user trust computer program calculates a user trust score based on the user login activity data;
• the user trust computer program determines that the user trust score is above a threshold, wherein the threshold is dynamic and varies based on a time of day, a day of the week, and/or a user location;
• and
• the user trust computer program authorizes the login attempt to the user workstation and a user session on the user workstation.
