Abstract: A system and method of authentication-based operation of a lock mechanism include detecting an authentication signal from an electronic authentication module, authenticating the authentication signal using a stored user profile, wherein the stored user profile is used for login authentication purposes and includes at least user data, and when the authentication signal is authenticated, activating an electromechanical mechanism to release a latch switch associated with a lock mechanism.
