1. A method comprising:

  • identifying, by a processor, an encryption key associated with a verification device;

    determining, by the processor, attributes of a session between a source device and the verification device, wherein first verification data is sent from the source device to the verification device via the session, wherein the first verification data identifies an account, wherein the account is associated with a user device, and wherein the verification device generates user device data associated with a first identifier for the user device;

    determining, by the processor and based on the attributes of the session, a second identifier associated with the source device;

    generating, by the processor, second verification data based on the second identifier associated with the source device;

    encrypting, by the processor and based on the encryption key associated with a verification device, the second verification data; and

    forwarding, by the processor, the encrypted second verification data toward the verification device, wherein the verification device decrypts the encrypted second verification data to recover the second verification data, and wherein the verification device determines that source device corresponds to the user device when the user device data corresponds to the second verification data.
