Abstract
A method of providing continuous user authentication for resource access control includes launching a continuous authentication service at a boot time of a first device, wherein the first device includes a processor, a memory, and one or more sensors configured to collect authentication information. Additionally, the method includes receiving authentication information comprising one or more of explicit authentication information or implicit authentication information, and receiving a request for access to a resource of the first device. Further, the method includes the operations of determining, by the continuous authentication service, a current value of a security state, the current value of the security state based in part on a time interval between a receipt time of the authentication information and a current time and controlling access to the resource based on the current value of the security state.
