Abstract
The physical web is an interesting development in networking technology. A beacon may broadcast beacon data and, if desired, a data payload. In various embodiments, a proxy may receive contact from a mobile machine that came into contact with a beacon and received data bringing the mobile machine to the proxy. The proxy may dynamically select a redirection for the mobile machine based on a variety of considerations discussed herein. The proxy may also employ cryptographic and context analysis to the contact from the mobile device to determine if the redirection should happen. And the proxy may review contacts originating from various beacons to determine whether the contacts, or lack thereof, from a beacon suggests the beacon needs to be investigated for failure, error, or tampering with it or its environment.
