Abstract
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for context aware frictionless authentication. A server may determine authentication method information, contextual scores and contextual weights of a device, in connection with a user request to access a resource via the device. The authentication method information may include a weight and a completion duration for each of a plurality of authentication methods available via the device. The server may determine an authentication score for each of the plurality of authentication methods using the authentication method information, the contextual scores and the contextual weights of the device. The server may identify a first authentication method from the plurality of authentication methods, according to the determined authentication score. The server may authenticate the user request via the first authentication method using a first device that supports the first authentication method.
