1. A system for authentication, the system comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
send, to a user device, an authentication request that a user, associated with the user device, provide a contextual description that describes a plurality of parameters of an operation of an application server;
receive, from the user device, an authentication response that includes the contextual description;
determine an authentication score based on comparing one or more described characteristics, within the contextual description, and the plurality of parameters; and
cause, based on the authentication score satisfying a threshold, the operation to be performed.
