Abstract
Various methods, apparatus, computer program products embodied on computer-readable storage mediums, and systems of providing alertness-based authorization include determining the alertness of a user and authorizing access permissions for that user based on the determined alertness. Although the user is associated with access permissions that are predefined, the access permissions actually authorized for that user are distinct from the predefined access permissions with which the user is associated.
