Abstract

There is provided a computer implemented method for accessing a resource at a computing device, as well as for controlling access to a resource by a computing device. The computing device receives a policy indicating a set of conditions under which access to the resource is permitted, determines whether each of the conditions are initially present based on an output of one or more sensors of the device, and monitors the one or more sensors to detect a change in the presence of one or more of the conditions. In response to detecting the change in the presence of one or more of the conditions, the computing device determines whether each of the conditions are present. In response to determining that each of the conditions is present, access to the resource is enabled. If at least one of the conditions is not present, access to the resource is prevented.
