Abstract: A wearable computing device, such as a wearable credit card type device or a wearable identification type device, that provides for location based authentication to verify that a user currently in possession of the wearable computing device is indeed the authorized user. In this aspect, the wearable computing device may detect wireless network signals in range of the wearable computing device, and transmit authentication data and the detected wireless network signals to an authentication service. The wearable computing device may then be authenticated when the authentication data corresponds to the user and the detected wireless network signals correspond to a pre-authorized location for authentication.

Abstract: Described are techniques and systems for providing authentication credentials associated with a user. The user is authenticated using one or more techniques, such as multi-factor authentication using one or more biometric characteristics, biomedical data, passwords, and so forth, to generate authentication data. The authentication data may be used in conjunction with information about a wearable device (“wearable”), such as a wristband. Authentication may be confirmed upon an indication that the wearable has not been removed, tampered with, and so forth. In some implementations the wearable device may store and distribute the authentication credentials to requesting devices so long as the wearable has not been removed, tampered with, and so forth.

Abstract: A wearable computing device, such as a wearable credit card type device or a wearable identification type device, that provides for deferred re-authentication that a user currently in possession of the wearable computing device is indeed the authorized user. In this aspect, the wearable computing device may store authentication data input by the user when network connection is unavailable, and transmit the authentication data when the network becomes available. For increased security, location information may also be incorporated so that the re-authentication may only occur within a limited number of geographic locations.

Abstract translation: 可穿戴计算设备，例如穿戴式信用卡类型设备或穿戴式识别类型设备，其提供当前拥有可穿戴计算设备的用户的延迟重新认证确实是授权用户。 在这方面，当网络连接不可用时，可穿戴计算设备可以存储用户输入的认证数据，并且当网络变得可用时传送认证数据。 为了增加安全性，还可以并入位置信息，使得重新认证只能发生在有限数量的地理位置内。
