Access management based on active environment comprising dynamically reconfigurable sets of smart objects

摘要

A processing device comprises a processor coupled to a memory and is configured to predict or otherwise determine that a user will utilize a target application on a user device in involvement with a particular set of smart objects, to request cryptographic material for activating the smart objects of the set, to receive the cryptographic material responsive to the request, and to utilize the cryptographic material to activate the smart objects. Each of the activated smart objects provides a verifier with a proof of involvement with the user device. The verifier controls user access to the target application based at least in part on the proofs provided by the activated smart objects. The determining, requesting, receiving and utilizing operations in some embodiments are performed by a learning agent running on the processing device. The learning agent illustratively includes functionality for learning target application access behavior of the user over time.
