Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for implementing tiered authentication using position-based credentials. A system for authenticating a user with position-based credentials may include one or more memories storing instructions and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to perform operations. The operations may include receiving a login request associated with the user from a first user interface device; receiving a first location associated with the first user interface device; receiving a second location associated with a second user interface device; when a Lebesgue distance between the first location and the second location is below a first threshold, authenticating the user; when the Lebesgue distance is above the first threshold and below a second, larger threshold, prompting the first interface device for a first credential; and when the Lebesgue distance is above the second threshold, prompting the first interface device for a second credential.
