Abstract
Input streams are automatically and continuously evaluated in a passive manner from sensors and resources of a device. The streams are weighted and aggregated to produce single confidence values. A current single confidence value is used to passively authenticate a user for access to the device or to one or more resources of the device when the user attempts access.
