Abstract: A computer sends a request to an authorization source to access a resource and includes its own location information. The computer receives a reply that includes the unencrypted location information of the computer and the resource encrypted such that a decryption key of the computer decrypts the encrypted resource. The entire reply is encrypted such that a decryption key of a third-party computer can decrypt the reply. The computer sends the encrypted reply to the third-party computer, and the reply is decrypted and returned to the computer if a distance between the computer and the third-party computer fulfills a proximity condition, as determined by the location of the computers.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for location-based authorization to access a resource. A first computer receives a request to access a resource from a second computer. The request to access the resource includes location information of the second computer. The first computer responds by sending a request to a third computer, requesting location information of the third computer. In response to receiving from the third computer, the location information of the third computer, the first computer determines a distance between the second computer and the third computer. If the distance between the second computer and the third computer fulfills a proximity condition, the first computer authorizes the resource request.
