Abstract: Techniques described herein provide multi-factor authentication based on positioning data. Generally described, configurations disclosed herein enable a system to authorize a particular action using positioning data, and possibly other data, associated with an identity. For example, when a user wishes to change a password or access a secured account, the system can authenticate a user if a device associated with the user is located in the secure area. The system can authenticate a user if a requested operation and/or a predetermined pattern of movement associated with the user is detected. For instance, the system allows the user to change the password when the user's computer has followed a predetermined pattern of movement, and when one or more verification procedures meets one or more criteria while the location of the computing device is within the predetermined area.

Abstract: Techniques described herein provide location-based access control to secured resources. Generally described, configurations disclosed herein enable a system to dynamically modify access to secured resources based on one or more location-related actions. For example, techniques disclosed herein can enable a computing system to control access to resources such as computing devices, display devices, secured locations, and secured data. In some configurations, the techniques disclosed herein can enable controlled access to secured resources based, at least in part, on an invitation associated with a location and positioning data indicating a location of a user.

Abstract: Techniques described herein generate indoor map data. Generally described, configurations disclosed herein generate indoor map data using positioning data and interaction data associated with the movement and interactions of user computing devices. For example, techniques disclosed herein can enable a computing system to identify floors of a building, hallways, offices, doors, common areas, and other resources, including computing resources, based on the movement of users and the interaction of the users with resources within the indoor environment.
