Abstract
A method for implicit authorization to a computer resource includes defining a behavioral signature including a plurality of defined computer actions known to an authorized user of the computer resource. A first performed computer action of a user is registered. The first performed computer action is compared with a first defined computer action of the plurality of defined computer actions, wherein, if the first performed computer action and the first defined computer action match, an authentication state is changed from a first authentication state to a second authentication state.
