Abstract
A computer-implemented method for implementing multi-factor authentication may include 1) receiving, as part of a secondary authentication system, an authentication request from a client system, 2) redirecting the client system to first perform a first authentication with a primary authentication system in response to receiving the authentication request, 3) receiving an assertion of the first authentication from the client system that demonstrates that the first authentication was successful, and 4) performing a second authentication with the client system in response to receiving the assertion of the first authentication. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
