Restricting access to a building
View Patent ↗One embodiment provides a method, including: obtaining, using a sensor, biometric data of a user; determining, using a processor, that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; and securing, based on the biometric data of the user, an area within a building. Other aspects are described and claimed.
1. A method, comprising: obtaining, using a sensor, biometric data of a user; determining, using a processor, that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; implementing security settings for a building based upon the obtained biometric data; and securing, based on the biometric data of the user not matching a known user and the implemented security settings, at least one area within the building, wherein the securing comprises locking the at least one area of the building to restrict access.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the area within the building is selected from the group consisting of a room, an entrance, and an object.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the securing comprises implementing an added security measure.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the added security measure requires authentication to remove the added security measure.
5. The method of claim 1 , comprising providing an owner profile for the known user comprising a plurality of preferred security settings.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the securing comprises implementing one or more of the plurality of preferred security settings.
7. The method of claim 1 , comprising initiating a communication to the known user in response to the determining that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user.
8. The method of claim 1 , comprising removing a security measure applied to the area within a building based on additional biometric data.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the removing is applied to a first area of the building while maintaining a security measure applied to a second area of the building.
10. A device, comprising: a biometric sensor; a processor operatively coupled to the biometric sensor; and a memory that stores instructions executable by the processor to: obtain biometric data of a user; determine that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; implement security settings for a building based upon the obtained biometric data; and secure, based on the biometric data of the user not matching a known user and the implemented security settings, at least one area within the building, wherein the instructions to secure the at least one area within the building comprise instructions to lock the area of the building to restrict access.
11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the area within the building is selected from the group consisting of a room, an entrance, and an object.
12. The device of claim 10 , wherein the processor executes instructions to secure an area within the building by implementing an added security measure.
13. The device of claim 12 , wherein the added security measure requires authentication to remove the added security measure.
14. The device of claim 10 , wherein the processor executes instructions to provide an owner profile for the known user comprising a plurality of preferred security settings.
15. The device of claim 14 , wherein the processor executes instructions to secure an area within the building by implementing one or more of the plurality of preferred security settings.
16. The device of claim 10 , wherein the processor executes instructions to initiate a communication to the known user in response to the determining that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user.
17. The device of claim 10 , wherein the processor executes instructions to remove a security measure applied to the area within a building based on additional biometric data.
18. A program product, comprising: a storage device that stores code, the code being executable by a processor and comprising: code that obtains, using a sensor, biometric data of a user; code that determines, using the processor, that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; code that implements security settings for a building based upon the obtained biometric data; and code that secures, based on the biometric data of the user not matching a known user and the implemented security settings, at least one area within the building, wherein the code that secures comprises code that locks the at least one area of the building to restrict access.
