Abstract: ABSTRACT The present invention discloses a Zero Trust-based intelligent authentication system aimed at strengthening the security of modem web applications. It combines advanced browser forensic analysis with post-quantum cryptographic techniques to provide a multi-layered and future-ready security framework. Unlike traditional authentication systems that rely solely on static credentials, this approach evaluates both user identity and the contextual integrity of each login attempt. The system captures various browser-specific attributes such as user agent, platform, timezone, screen resolution, and other environmental details during every login attempt. These attributes are analysed to generate a unique browser fingerprint, which acts as a digital identity for the device being used. This fingerprint is then compared with previously stored records to detect any anomalies or suspicious variations that may indicate unauthorized access. Based on the comparison results, a dynamic risk score is calculated for each login attempt. The system intelligently classifies the risk level and enforces appropriate authentication responses, such as granting access, requesting additional verification (like OW or multi-factor authentication), or denying the login altogether. This ensures that every access request is continuously evaluated under Zero Trust principles, where no user or device is inherently trusted. The system is implemented using Python Django for backend operations and HTML, CSS, and lavaScript for the frontend interface, ensuring a robust and user-friendly experience. Secure communication protocols, encryption, and hashing mechanisms are employed to safeguard sensitive data during transmission and storage. Additionally, the integration of post-quantum cryptographic concepts ensures long-term security against emerging quantum computing threats, making the solution scalable, resilient, and highly effective against risks such as credential theft, session hijacking, and unauthorized access.
