Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed to authentication and authorization methods. The authentication process can involve a user device interacting with an access device that is within a proximity of the user device to help ensure that the user device is near a location of the access device. The access device can assist with the authentication, either at the access device or via a communications network to an authentication computer. For example, embodiments can provide mechanisms for authentication of a user device at an access device before the user device is authenticated and authorized access to a building.
