Authentication is one of most important security issues that need to be addressed in any organizations. It enables them to keep their data secure by permitting only authenticated users to access their protected resources. Resources may include computer systems, networks, databases, websites and other network-based applications or services. Through observations, it has been noticed that the authentication factors - something you now, something you have and something you are - need to be rebuild and develop in-order to increase their level of authenticity. This paper proposes a new factor in authentication by integrating user's physical location using Global Position System (GPS). This proposal can be used to prevent the Domain name server (DNS) spoofing and replay attack. In addition, it adds more values with its applications in specific areas such as banking and government.
