1. A method of granting access to an application or service based on a detected human stimulus, comprising:

  • detecting, at a computing device of a user on-board an aircraft, an externally generated stimulus, the externally generated stimulus being a response to a contextual challenge issued at a user interface of the computing device, a content of the contextual challenge being contextual to the aircraft and suitable to determine if the externally generated stimulus is applied by a human and not by another computing device;

    determining, at the computing device, if the externally generated stimulus is included in a set of suitable responses to the contextual challenge; and

    causing, by the computing device, access to an application or service to be granted based on the determination that the externally generated stimulus is included in the set of suitable responses to the contextual challenge.
