Abstract

Embodiments are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for sorting mobile banking functions into authentication buckets. Embodiments determine, for each of a plurality of mobile banking functions, a corresponding authentication buckets, where each authentication bucket corresponds with a level of authentication. Some embodiments receive a request, from a user, to access a function; access the plurality of authentication buckets to determine which of the authentication buckets corresponds with the requested function; determine the level of authentication associated with the determined authentication bucket; determine which authentication types are associated with the level of authentication; request authentication credentials corresponding to the authentication types; receive authentication credentials from the user; validate the authentication credentials, thereby resulting in a successful validation of the authentication credentials; and, in response to the successful validation of the authentication credentials, enable access to the function requested by the user.
