Abstract:
System for authorizing a request for remote access to customer account information includes a server configured to receive the request via a network from a remote computing device, a database storing the customer account information accessible by the server, and memory accessible by the server and storing a customer notification program which, when executed by the server, performs steps for (a) identifying, responsive to the server receiving the request, the remote computing device by a device fingerprint and by a requesting location, (b) determining whether the device fingerprint matches any of a number of device fingerprints authorized to access the customer account information, and (c) sending, responsive to determining a mismatch between the device fingerprint and each of the previously authorized device fingerprints, a notification of the request to a customer-specified address, the notification indicating (i) the request, (ii) identity of the remote computing device, and (iii) the requesting location.
