Abstract
Examples are provided for device access control. In one example, a computing device to which access is controlled includes a display device for presenting a user interface, a processor, and a storage device storing instructions executable by the processor to, for each of a threshold number of rounds, display a plurality of candidate regions, each candidate region including a plurality of candidate authentication objects, and receive input indicating a device access control response. After performing the threshold number of rounds, the device may selectively allow access based on a number of rounds that included a successful input (e.g., selecting a candidate region that includes an object from an access code).
