Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments providing user authentication through registered device communications. An authentication request is received from a client device. A user is authenticated for access to a user account based at least in part on the client device providing the authentication token. The authentication token is generated by the client device or by one or more other computing devices and sent to the client device. The client device encrypts the authentication token based at least in part on a user authenticating factor and stores the encrypted authentication token on the client device.
