Abstract
An apparatus may include a processor that may be caused to access handholding information indicating a hand configuration in which the apparatus is being held and compare the handholding information with previously-stored handholding authentication data of an authentic user. The previously-stored handholding authentication data may represent an authentic configuration in which the apparatus is held by the authentic user. The processor may be caused to determine that the apparatus is being held by the authentic user based on the comparison and cause an authenticated action to occur based on the determination.
