Abstract

A system, comprising an authentication module to generate a challenge to authenticate a user, the challenge to be distributed to members of a set of verifying parties; and grant the user access to a resource upon receiving an authenticating response to the challenge; and a combiner module to receive partial responses from members of the set of verifying parties upon verification of the user by each member, the verification made using a provided contextual identifier of the user; based on the partial responses reaching a threshold number of responses, combine the partial responses to obtain a combined response, and provide the combined response to the authentication module as an authenticating response to the challenge.
