Abstract

A device includes a security controller to determine whether a wireless security device is authorized to access at least one resource protected by a secure access device based, at least in part, on identification signals that originate from the wireless security device. The security controller is configured to receive location information corresponding to the wireless security device from at least one wireless device. When the wireless security device is authorized to access at least one resource, the security controller is configured to direct the security access device to disable at least one security measure that restricts user access to the at least one resource based, at least in part, on the location information corresponding to the wireless security device.
