METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE ASSISTED DYNAMIC MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

A system includes a processor that receives an authentication request, at a vehicle, from an application executing on a device in communication with the vehicle, including a security designation. The receiving vehicle then determines if the vehicle has access to a primary security authentication system corresponding to the security designation. The vehicle also, responsive to the vehicle having access, utilizes the primary authentication system to authenticate a user via the determined primary security authentication system and provide user credentials, obtained based on successful use of the primary authentication system, to the device.
