Patent attributes
In one embodiment, a verification platform is adapted for communication with at least a first device. The verification platform receives a verification request from the first device, identifies one or more verification rules previously established by a user of the first device for processing of the verification request, sends a notification regarding the one or more verification rules, receives verification input responsive to the notification, and grants or denies the verification request based at least in part on the received verification input. The verification rule or rules specify multiple distinct types of verification selected by the user, and a sequence in which the selected verification types are to be applied in processing the verification request. The verification request may be generated in conjunction with an attempted launch of a designated application on the first device. The first device may comprise a mobile telephone, a computer or another type of device.
