More Information
Summary:In an example, a system and method for predictive user authentication is disclosed. The system may include proximity sensors, computer vision systems, and other provisions for monitoring users' movements throughout a facility. A predictive security engine may also be programmed with heuristic data to recognize such factors as a user's face, gait, or average appearance. When a user approaches a terminal, the system may preemptively compute a confidence score regarding the user's authenticity. Based on the confidence score, the system will determine how much additional authentication is necessary. The system may also provide context-sensitive data to the user based on location or activities. Thus, authentication to the system is made easier to the user, and the user receives more relevant data for his or her activities.
