A location multi-factor verification method may comprise initiating a boot process of a client device via firmware of the client device, receiving, via a network interface device, an access point (AP) beacon frame identifying a nearby AP, transmitting the AP beacon frame to a location determination service via the network interface device, receiving a geographic location estimation from the location determination service, based on the AP beacon frame, transmitting the geographic location estimation to the nearby AP, and granting a user of the client device access to an operating system of the client device if a boot process authorization instruction is received at the client device via the network interface device.
