Abstract

A system and method provide automatic access to applications or data. A portable physical device, referred to herein as a Personal Digital Key or “PDK”, stores one or more profiles in memory, including a biometric profile acquired in a secure trusted process and uniquely associated with a user that is authorized to use and associated with the PDK. The PDK wirelessly transmits identification information including a unique PDK identification number, the biometric profile and a profile over a secure wireless channel to a reader. A computing device is coupled to the reader. An auto login server is coupled to the reader and the computing device and launches one or more applications associated with a user name identified by the received profile.

Claims (44)

1. A method comprising:

detecting a portable device within a proximity zone of a reader device;

responsive to detecting that the portable device is within the proximity zone of the reader device, establishing wireless communication between the portable device and the reader device;

wirelessly receiving, from the portable device, a unique device identifier identifying the portable device;

automatically unlocking a host device associated with the reader device and launching an application on the host device based on the unique device identifier, a specific location within the application being automatically accessed upon the launching; and

responsive to detecting that the portable device is no longer within the proximity zone of the reader device, automatically closing the application on the host device and locking the host device associated with the reader device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein automatically unlocking the host device associated with the reader device further comprises:

acquiring biometric input from a user;

comparing the biometric input to a biometric profile of a legitimate user to determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric profile; and

responsive to determining that the biometric input matches the biometric profile, automatically unlocking the host device associated with the reader device.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the biometric profile is wirelessly received from the portable device, the portable device storing the biometric profile.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein automatically unlocking the host device associated with the reader device further comprises:

retrieving login credentials from a database using the unique device identifier; and

automatically logging into the host device using the login credentials.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the application is a default application associated with a user of the portable device.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

responsive to detecting the portable device within the proximity zone of the reader device, presenting a username associated with the unique device identifier on the host device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein automatically locking the host device associated with the reader device is responsive to detecting that the portable device is no longer within the proximity zone of the reader device for a predefined period of time.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the portable device within the proximity zone of the reader device is based on a signal strength of the portable device.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portable device comprises one from a group of a cell phone, a personal digital assistant, an identification tag, a watch, a bracelet, a jewelry item, and a clothing item.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the host device is one of a private computing device and a shared computing device.

11. A system comprising:

a host device including a reader device and a memory including instructions that, when executed by the host device, cause the system to:

detect a portable device within a proximity zone of the reader device;

responsive to detecting that the portable device is within the proximity zone of the reader device, establish wireless communication between the portable device and the reader device;

wirelessly receive, from the portable device, a unique device identifier identifying the portable device;

automatically unlock the host device associated with the reader device and launch an application on the host device based on the unique device identifier, a specific location within the application being automatically accessed upon the launch; and

responsive to detecting that the portable device is no longer within the proximity zone of the reader device, automatically close the application on the host device and lock the host device associated with the reader device.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein to automatically unlock the host device associated with the reader device, the instructions, when executed by the host device, further cause the system to:

acquire biometric input from a user;

compare the biometric input to a biometric profile of a legitimate user to determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric profile; and

responsive to determining that the biometric input matches the biometric profile, automatically unlock the host device associated with the reader device.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the biometric profile is wirelessly received from the portable device, the portable device storing the biometric profile.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein to automatically unlock the host device associated with the reader device, the instructions, when executed by the host device, further cause the system to:

retrieve login credentials from a database using the unique device identifier; and

automatically log into the host device using the login credentials.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the application is a default application associated with a user of the portable device.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the host device, further cause the system to:

present a username associated with the unique device identifier on the host device responsive to detecting the portable device within the proximity zone of the reader device.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the host device, further cause the system to:

responsive to detecting that the portable device is no longer within the proximity zone of the reader device for a predefined period of time, automatically locking the host device associated with the reader device.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein to detect the portable device within the proximity zone of the reader device, the instructions, when executed by the host device, further cause the system to detect the portable device within the proximity zone of the reader device based on a signal strength of the portable device.

19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the portable device comprises one from a group of a cell phone, a personal digital assistant, an identification tag, a watch, a bracelet, a jewelry item, and a clothing item.

20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the host device is one of a private computing device and a shared computing device.
