Technologies for managing network privileges based on physical presence

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a network infrastructure to:

• detect a computing device in physical presence with the network infrastructure;
• determine whether the computing device is a member of a graft-network;
• set initial network privileges for the computing device in response to determining that the computing device is not a member of the graft-network, wherein the initial network privileges indicate an ability of the computing device to transmit and receive data over a communication bus of the network infrastructure;
• and
• selectively increase or decrease the initial network privileges of the computing device as a function of at least an amount of time for which the computing device has been within a predefined physical proximity of the network infrastructure.

A method for managing network privileges of members of a graft-network, the method comprising:

• detecting, by a network infrastructure of the graft-network, a computing device in physical presence with the network infrastructure;
• determining, by the network infrastructure, whether the computing device is a member of the graft-network;
• setting, by the network infrastructure, initial network privileges for the computing device in response to determining that the computing device is not a member of the graft-network, wherein the initial network privileges indicate an ability of the computing device to transmit and receive data over a communication bus of the network infrastructure;
• and
• selectively increasing or decreasing the initial network privileges of the computing device as a function of at least an amount of time for which the computing device has been within a predefined physical proximity of the network infrastructure.
