H04L 29/06
H04W 12/06

Abstract:

An electronic device including a memory storing at least one of biometric or passcode data of a user, and a processor (i) requesting access of data over the secure network, wherein access to the data is controlled by a server, (ii) scanning biometric or passcode data of the user and validating the scanned biometric or passcode data with the biometric or passcode data of the user stored in said memory, (iii) validating the biometric or passcode data of the user, and (iv) contingent upon the validation being affirmative, submitting a request to the server to generate an authorized area of authentication (AAA) that includes the current location of the electronic device, wherein the server enables access to the secure data only when the location of the electronic device remains within the AAA.

H04W 4/02
H04L 29/06

Abstract:

An electronic device including a memory storing biometric or passcode data of a user, and a processor, scanning biometric or passcode data of the user and validating the scanned biometric or passcode data with the stored biometric or passcode data, dynamically identifying a current location of the electronic device, accessing a secure network, requesting access of data over the secure network, wherein access to the data is controlled by a server and the server enables access to the secure data only when the current location of the electronic device is within an authorized area of authentication (AAA), and if the current location of the mobile device is not within an existing AAA, the biometric or passcode data of the user is validated and contingent upon the validation being affirmative, submitting a request to the server to generate a temporary AAA that includes the current location of the electronic device.
