Abstract
Embodiments generally relate to securing a geophysical presence of a user. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving information associated with the user in a physical environment. The method further includes generating a unique pattern in response to receiving the information associated with the user. The method further includes sending encoded information containing the unique pattern to a landmark device in the physical environment, where the encoded information causes the landmark device to present the unique pattern. The method further includes receiving captured data from the physical environment. The method further includes verifying an identity and a physical presence of the user in the physical environment based on the captured data, where the captured data includes the landmark device.
