Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for securing data using a mobile device. The method may include determining securing global positioning data values of the mobile device; measuring a securing direction of the mobile device relative to a magnetic north direction; capturing a securing password by the mobile device; and securing the data against unauthorized access using the determined global positioning data values, the securing password, and the securing direction as a combined password.
Claims18
A method for securing data using a mobile device, comprising:
- determining securing global positioning data values of the mobile device;
- measuring a securing direction of said mobile device relative to a magnetic north direction;
- and
- measuring a distance from the mobile device to eyes of a user;
- securing said data against unauthorized access using said determined global positioning data values, said distance, and said securing direction as a combined password.
A system for securing data using a mobile device, comprising:
- a global positioning data receiver to receive global positioning data values of said mobile device as securing global positioning data values;
- a distance measurer to measure a distance between the mobile device and eyes of a user as a securing distance;
- a compass measurer to measure a securing direction of said mobile device relative to a magnetic north direction;
- and
- a data protector to secure said data against unauthorized access using said determined global positioning data values, said securing distance, and said securing direction as a combined password.
A computer program product for securing data using a mobile device, said computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, said program instructions being executable by a computing system to cause said computing system to:
- determine securing global positioning data values of the mobile device;
- measure a securing direction of said mobile device relative to a magnetic north direction;
- and
- measuring a distance from the mobile device to eyes of a user;
- secure said data against unauthorized access using said determined global positioning data values, said distance, and said securing direction as a combined password.
