Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for secure authentication for accessing remote resources are disclosed. in some implementations, a user is authenticated for a first time on an interface using a first communications channel; the user is authenticated a second time on the interface using a second communications channel; access privileges are determined based on authenticating the user for the second time; and a random uniform resource locator (url) is generated based on the access privileges, where the random url is single-use and indirectly associated with a requested resource.
