Advanced Identity Cloud

Device Location Match node

Compares any collected device location metadata with that stored in the user’s profile.

Use this node with the Device Profile Collector node to determine if the authenticating user’s device is located within range of somewhere they have authenticated from, and saved, previously.

You must establish the identity of the user before attempting to match locations.
