Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing magnetic data from a magnetic-measurement device. The magnetic data corresponds to one or more locations of the magnetic-measurement device. The method includes accessing geofencing data corresponding to an area; comparing the magnetic data with the geofencing data; based on the comparison, determining that the locations correspond to the area; and, based on the determination, authenticating the magnetic-measurement device for access to one or more resources.
Claims30
A method comprising:
- by an electronic device, accessing magnetic data from a magnetic-measurement device, wherein the magnetic data corresponds to one or more locations of the magnetic-measurement device;
- by the electronic device, accessing geofencing data corresponding to an area;
- by the electronic device, comparing the magnetic data with the geofencing data;
- by the electronic device, based on the comparison, determining that the locations correspond to the area;
- by the electronic device, based on the determination, authenticating the magnetic-measurement device for access to one or more resources.
One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:
- access magnetic data from a magnetic-measurement device, wherein the magnetic data corresponds to one or more locations of the magnetic-measurement device;
- access geofencing data corresponding to an area;
- compare the magnetic data with the geofencing data;
- based on the comparison, determine that the locations correspond to the area;
- based on the determination, authenticate the magnetic-measurement device for access to one or more resources.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to one or more of the processors and comprising instructions operable when executed by one or more of the processors to cause the system to:
- access magnetic data from a magnetic-measurement device, wherein the magnetic data corresponds to one or more locations of the magnetic-measurement device;
- access geofencing data corresponding to an area;
- compare the magnetic data with the geofencing data;
- based on the comparison, determine that the locations correspond to the area;
- based on the determination, authenticate the magnetic-measurement device for access to one or more resources.
A system comprising:
- means for accessing magnetic data from a magnetic-measurement device, wherein the magnetic data corresponds to one or more locations of the magnetic-measurement device;
- means for accessing geofencing data corresponding to an area;
- means for comparing the magnetic data with the geofencing data;
- means for, based on the comparison, determining that the locations correspond to the area;
- means for, based on the determination, authenticating the magnetic-measurement device for access to one or more resources.
