System and method for supplying security information

1. A wearable device, comprising:

a housing configured to be worn by a user;

a first sensor supported by the housing and configured to sense presence of the user in contact with the housing;

a second sensor supported by the housing and configured to sense at least one biometric parameter of the user in contact with the wearable device and output one or more signals representative of the biometric parameter;

a communication device configured to provide wireless communication signals; and,

at least one data processing system having one or more processor configured to receive the one or more signals representative of the biometric parameter and sensed presence of the user and compare the biometric parameter to a stored user parameter for authentication of the user, wherein upon authentication by the one or more processor, the one or more processor is configured to switch from a locked mode wherein the processor may not communicate secure data via the communication device to an unlocked mode to enable the one or more processor to communicate sensitive data, via the communication device.

2. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the second sensor is configured to sense kinetic motion of the user and kinetic motion of the user is compared to the stored user parameter for authentication of the user.

3. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the second sensor includes a plurality of accelerometers configured to sense movement of the user.

4. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processor is configured to sense a movement password of the user.

5. The wearable device of claim 4 , wherein the movement password of the user includes sensing of rotation of the housing.

6. The wearable device of claim 4 , wherein the movement password of the user includes sensing of tapping of the housing.

7. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the first sensor is configured to continuously sense proximity of the user.

8. The wearable device of claim 1 , further comprising at least one indicator coupled to the one or more processor and configured to provide one or more states of the wearable device.

9. A wearable device, comprising:

a housing configured to be worn by a user;

at least one sensor supported by the housing and configured to sense at least one biometric parameter of the user in contact with the wearable device and output one or more signals representative of the biometric parameter;

a communication device configured to provide wireless communication signals; and,

at least one data processing system having one or more processor configured to:

receive the one or more signals representative of the biometric parameter and compare the biometric parameter to a stored user biometric parameter for authentication of the user, wherein upon authentication by the one or more processor, the one or more processor is configured to switch from a locked mode wherein the processor may not communicate secure data via the communication device to an unlocked mode to enable the one or more processor to communicate sensitive data, via the communication device, indicative of at least two factors conforming to requirements of a multi-factor authentication scheme;

receive one or more signals representative of kinetic motion of the user and sense a movement password of the user; and,

transmit the movement password via the communication device.

10. The wearable device of claim 9 , wherein the least one sensor includes a plurality of accelerometers configured to sense movement of the user.

11. The wearable device of claim 9 , wherein the movement password of the user includes sensing of rotation of the housing.

12. The wearable device of claim 9 , wherein the movement password of the user includes sensing of tapping of the housing.

13. The wearable device of claim 9 , further comprising at least one sensor configured to continuously sense proximity of the user.

14. The wearable device of claim 9 , further comprising at least one indicator coupled to the one or more processor and configured to provide one or more states of the wearable device.

15. A method comprising:

sensing, by at least one accelerometer, a biometric parameter of a user and transmitting the biometric parameter to one or more processor, at least one of the processors positioned in a wearable device on an appendage of the user;

authenticating, by the one or more processor, the user using the biometric parameter and one or more stored parameters;

sensing, by the at least one accelerometer positioned in the wearable device, a movement password of the user;

switching the one or more processor from a locked mode wherein the processor may not communicate secure data via a communication device to an unlocked mode responsive to authenticating the user enabling the one or more processor to communicate sensitive data, via the communication device; and,

transmitting the movement password of the user via the communication device.

16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising the step of sensing, by at least one sensor on the wearable device, continuous presence of the user.

17. The method of claim 16 , further comprising the step of maintaining the one or more processor in the unlocked mode by monitoring the continuous presence of the user.

18. The method of claim 15 , further comprising the step of transmitting, via the communication device, sensitive information stored in a temporary memory of the one or more processor.

19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising the step of discarding the sensitive information stored in the temporary memory when the one or more processor are in the locked mode.

20. The method of claim 15 , wherein authenticating includes a multi-factor authentication scheme.
