Abstract:
A computing system includes a network circuit enabling the computing system to exchange information over a network, a customer database storing information pertaining to various user accounts pertaining to a plurality of users, and a risk assessment circuit. The risk assessment circuit is configured search at least one data source to identify a user attribute, determine that the user attribute bears a relationship to a first security credential that is either associated with or potentially associated with a user account, generate a security prompt responsive to the determination, and transmit the security prompt to a user computing device associated with the user.
