An authentication correlation (AC) computing device is provided. The AC computing device includes a processor and a memory. The AC computing device receives a first authentication request from a requesting computer device including an account identifier, a first timestamp, and at least one authentication factor, and determines a first security level of the first authentication request. The AC computing device stores the first security level and the first timestamp. The AC computing device is also configured to receive a second authentication request including the account identifier and a second timestamp, determine that the second authentication satisfies an authentication rule based on the account identifier, the second timestamp, and the stored authentication data wherein the rule defines a timeframe and an authentication threshold, and generate an authentication response based on the determination and the authentication rule wherein the authentication response includes an approval indicator.
