Abstract

A temporal identity vault used to authenticate an individual is described herein. User identifying input is received on a device, such as a cell phone. The identifying input is, in some examples, encrypted and stored as a temporal identity vault. The temporal identity vault is configured for a use. The use may be a time, location, or the like. A beacon is associated with the temporal identity vault. If the beacon is at a location relative to an object, the authentication process is started. The information stored in the temporal identity vault is authenticated at a central service. Upon authentication, the user is permitted to operate an object. The temporal identity vault may thereafter be deleted.
