Systems and techniques are provided for dynamic authorization. A signal may be received from a sensor. A concept may be determined from the signal. The concept may be a location of a computing device, an action being performed with the computing device, an identity of a user of the computing device, or a temporal context for the computing device. A current pattern may be determined from the concept. The current pattern may be matched to a stored pattern. The stored pattern may be associated with a security outcome. The security outcome may be sent to be implemented. A security message may displayed indicating the security outcome and part of the stored pattern that was matched to the current pattern. The security outcome may be causing presentation of an authentication prompt or not causing presentation of an authentication prompt.

Dynamic authorization

A first computing device monitors a presence of a second computing device, and determines when the second computing device has moved out of an area proximate to the first computing device. In response to determining that the second computer moved out of the area, the first computing device is automatically configured to limit user interaction with one or more applications currently operating on the first computing device to a predetermined set of commands while preventing user interaction with other applications provided by the first computing device.
