Abstract
Systems and methods are provided approving or denying a request for user account authentication for a mobile network operator (MNO). The method includes receiving a location of a wireless user device associated with a request for user account authentication for an MNO. The location of the wireless user device for the request for user account authentication is compared with known locations of the wireless user device over time to determine whether to approve or deny the authentication request.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- at least one computing device, including at least one processor configured to:
- receive a location of a wireless user device associated with a request for user account authentication for a mobile network operator (MNO);
- compare the location of the wireless user device associated with the request for user account authentication with a location profile of locations of the wireless user device over time to determine if the location of the wireless user device associated with the request for user account authentication satisfies a threshold associated with the location profile;
- and
- responsive to satisfying the threshold associated with the location profile for the wireless user device, generate a response to the request for user account authentication.

- comparing the location of the wireless user device associated with the request for user account authentication with a location profile of locations of the wireless user device over time to determine if the location associated with the wireless user device for the request for user account authentication satisfies a threshold associated with the location profile;
- and
- responsive to satisfying the threshold associated with the location profile for the wireless user device, generating a response to the request for user account authentication.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a location of a wireless user device associated with a request for user account authentication for a mobile network operator (MNO);
- comparing the location of the wireless user device associated with the request for user account authentication with a location profile of locations of the wireless user device over time to determine if the location of the wireless user device associated with the request for user account authentication satisfies a threshold associated with the location profile;
- and
- responsive to satisfying the threshold associated with the location profile for the wireless user device, generating a response to the request for user account authentication.
