Patent attributes
The disclosed computer-implemented method for preventing session hijacking may include (1) determining that a user is attempting to complete at least a portion of an authentication session on a first computing system, (2) using input from one or more input devices of the first computing system to obtain environmental context associated with the user's attempt to complete the authentication session, (3) preventing the authentication session from authenticating the user while using the environmental context to determine whether the authentication session is valid, where using the environmental context to determine whether the authentication session is valid includes (a) transmitting the environmental context to a second computing system and (b) requesting an indication of whether, based on an evaluation of the environmental context at the second computing system, the authentication session is valid. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
