Abstract

A wearable computing device, such as a wearable credit card type device or a wearable identification type device, that provides for deferred re-authentication that a user currently in possession of the wearable computing device is indeed the authorized user. In this aspect, the wearable computing device may store authentication data input by the user when network connection is unavailable, and transmit the authentication data when the network becomes available. For increased security, location information may also be incorporated so that the re-authentication may only occur within a limited number of geographic locations.
