Abstract

A login engine for a network device can operate to secure or determine login access in response to a login request according to different sensor data of one or more physical properties. In response to the login request, a first sensor related to a first physical property can operate to detect individual characteristic data and content data. The individual characteristic data can be compared other individual characteristic data of a user profile, which can be stored in a data store. The content data can also be compared to other content data of the user profile. Based on these comparisons satisfying predetermined thresholds, a successful login stage of a plurality of login stages can be enabled.
