Abstract:
Systems, methods, and media for authentication are provided. In accordance with some implementations, the system comprises: a hardware processor that is programmed to: receive, from a device, a message relating to an authentication status of a user account associated with the device; transmit an authentication request to the device that is transmitted to an authentication server; receive, from the device, a response to the authentication request that includes authentication data relating to a session corresponding to the user account on the authentication server; cause an interface to be presented that requests authorization to authenticate the device with the authentication server using the user account; and transmit the authentication data to the device that causes the device to retrieve a corresponding authentication token from the authentication server, wherein the corresponding authentication token authenticates the user account on the device.
