State-of-the-art techniques hardly attempt to address controlled resource access problem in context of Basic Emergent Users (BEUs). Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for Proof of Work (POW) based protection of resources. The method includes using the POW for work done by BEUs in physical world and mapping it to digital world to generate crypto currency in terms of credit score, wherein an end user is eligible or authorized to use a resource of an entity to get a desired service if accumulated credit score is above a credit threshold. Gaining points to improve the credit score is challenging as it is based on percentage of compliance achieved by the BEU through actual work in accordance with a compliance protocol. Further, the method includes authenticating the authorized user based on a set of questions with increasing difficulty, derived based on a culture graph.
