Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for controlling access to resources by a client device. Methods may include receiving a user request to access a resource on the device and determining whether the resource requires a facial capture. If the resource requires a facial capture, a camera of the device may be automatically activated to capture an image and the resource may be rendered on the device. In some cases, access to the resource may be limited based on whether the image includes a face or not. A record associating the image and the requested resource may be stored, for example, on the device or on a remote server.

31. A method for determining whether opening an application on a mobile computing device requires facial recognition, comprising:
-
receiving a request to open the application; determining, based on the application being opened, whether the application requires execution of a facial recognition algorithm prior to opening the application; when the application requires execution of the facial recognition algorithm, activating a camera on the mobile computing device to obtain one or more images; and authorizing the user to access the application being opened when the facial recognition algorithm confirms the identity of the user. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37)

38. A computer-readable medium comprising instruction which, when executed by a processor, determine whether opening an application on a mobile computing device requires facial recognition by:
-
receiving a request to open the application; determining, based on the application being opened, whether the application requires execution of a facial recognition algorithm prior to opening the application; when the application requires execution of the facial recognition algorithm, activating a camera on the mobile computing device to obtain one or more images; and authorizing the user to access the application being opened when the facial recognition algorithm confirms the identity of the user. - View Dependent Claims (39, 40, 41, 42, 43)
