Abstract
Approaches for facilitating spatial and temporal verification of users and/or user devices are disclosed. In some implementations, a user device may be detected within a short wireless communication range. A wireless communication session with the user device may be initiated based on the detection. Information identifying a first integrity-based certificate may be received from the user device during the wireless communication session during a first time period. Information identifying a second integrity-based certificate associated with a second time period may be provided responsive to determining that the first integrity-based certificate is a valid integrity-based certificate associated with the first time period. The second integrity-based certificate may be configured to allow network access for the user device during the second time period.
