Abstract

Arrangements for detecting unauthorized activity using spatially aware devices are provided. In some aspects, a computing device including a spatially aware chip may be detected at a location. An indication of device detection, as well as additional data may be captured and received. Upon a second detection of the computing device, additional data for that visit (e.g., a second visit, subsequent to a first visit to the location) may be captured and received. Earlier stored data associated with the device and/or spatially aware chip may be retrieved and compared to the additional for the second visit to detect one or more anomalies, determine a risk score for the device, and the like. Based on the detected anomalies and/or risk score, one or more mitigating actions may be identified and executed to mitigate the risk. Further, one or more alerts or notifications may be transmitted to one or more devices.
