USING A WIRELESS BEACON TO PROVIDE ACCESS CREDENTIALS TO A SECURE NETWORK

摘要

There are provided systems and methods for using a wireless beacon to provide access credentials to a secure network. A network access device, such as a WiFi router, may provide a secure wireless network requiring access credentials to access the network. For example, the network may be password protected to prevent unauthorized used. Additionally, the network may have various levels of use, such as access depending on a security clearance for a user or data transfer and usage rates. Each of the various levels of use may require a separate access credential. A wireless beacon may be configured to connect to user devices that are near or within an area covered by the network. The connection between a user device and the beacon may be utilized to determine the proper access credential for the user device and push the access credential to the user device.
