receive information about a subsequent gesture from the user;

determine a second application page of the plurality of application pages, that is different from the first application page, to present to the user based on the subsequent gesture from the user by accessing the mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and the corresponding gestures; and

output a subsequent command to present the second application page to the user via the display screen, the second application page providing a second set of functional features of the application that is different than the first set of functional features of the application.

2. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable memory is configured to store the mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and the corresponding gestures.

3. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the display screen is displayable on a display device that comprises:

a touchscreen, or touchpad, input component configured to receive the gesture from the user by receiving a first swipe gesture and configured to transmit the first swipe gesture to the computing device.

4. The computing device of claim 1 wherein the computer-readable memory further comprises instructions that are executable by the processing unit to cause the computing device to:

authenticate the gesture; and

transmit to a mobile computing device, in response to authenticating the gesture, a confirmation that the user has been successfully authenticated.

5. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable memory further comprises instructions executable by the processing unit to cause the computing device to receive at least one of: a password verification, a challenge question verification, or a biometric authentication.

6. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the application is a web-based application, wherein the web-based application is configured to be accessed by a mobile computing device through web-based resources.

7. The computer device of claim 1 , wherein the computing device is a computer server configured to control access attempts to a set of network resources or services.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that are executable by a processor for performing operations, the operations comprising:

receiving a request to access an application, wherein the application includes a plurality of application pages, each application page configured to provide a different set of functional features of the application;

in response to receiving the request to access the application, outputting a command to present a user interface via a display screen;

receiving information about a gesture from a user;

determining a specific application page among the plurality of application pages to present to the user based on the gesture from the user by accessing mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and corresponding gestures, and by identifying the specific application page as corresponding to the gesture via a mapping;

outputting a command to present the specific application page to the user via the display screen, the specific application page providing a set of functional features of the application, wherein the specific application page is a first application page, the set of functional features is a first set of functional features;

receiving information about a subsequent gesture from the user;

determining a second application page of the plurality of application pages, that is different from the first application page, to present to the user based on the subsequent gesture from the user by accessing the mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and the corresponding gestures; and

outputting a subsequent command to present the second application page to the user via the display screen, the second application page providing a second set of functional features of the application that is different than the first set of functional features of the application.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , comprising the mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and the corresponding gestures.

10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the display screen is displayable on a display device that comprises:

a touchscreen, or touchpad, input component configured to receive the gesture from the user by receiving a first swipe gesture and configured to transmit the information about the first swipe gesture.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

authenticating the gesture; and

transmitting to a mobile computing device, in response to authenticating the gesture, a confirmation that the user has been successfully authenticated.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving at least one of: a password verification, a challenge question verification, or a biometric authentication.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the application is a web-based application, wherein the web-based application is configured to be accessed by a mobile computing device through web-based resources.

14. A method comprising:

receiving a request to access an application, wherein the application includes a plurality of application pages, each application page configured to provide a different set of functional features of the application;

in response to receiving the request to access the application, outputting a command to present a user interface via a display screen;

receiving information about a gesture from a user;

determining a specific application page among the plurality of application pages to present to the user based on the gesture from the user;

outputting a command to present the specific application page to the user via the display screen, the specific application page providing a set of functional features of the application, wherein the specific application page is a first application page, the set of functional features is a first set of functional features;

receiving information about a subsequent gesture from the user;

determining a second application page of the plurality of application pages, that is different from the first application page, to present to the user based on the subsequent gesture from the user; and

outputting a subsequent command to present the second application page to the user via the display screen, the second application page providing a second set of functional features of the application.

15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising receiving, from a mobile computing device, at least one of: a password verification, a challenge question verification, or a biometric authentication.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising: storing mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and corresponding gestures.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein determining the specific application page of the plurality of application pages to present to the user based on the gesture from the user comprises accessing the mappings between the plurality of application pages of the application and corresponding gestures.
