Access management

摘要

Methods, computing devices and computer-readable media for access management are disclosed. A method of passcode authentication includes: maintaining a count for failed authentication attempts, displaying a visual representation of a current count for failed authentication attempts on an authentication interface. An additional method of passcode authentication is also disclosed which includes: maintaining a count for failed authentication attempts; determining a current authentication request invalid; determining a delay time based on the count for failed authentication attempts; and delaying submission of a second authentication attempt until after the delay time has expired, wherein the delaying submission manifests in a delayed visual feedback of user input, in a delayed processing of user input, or in an inability to enter user input for during the delay time.

1. A method for controlling access at a mobile device, the method comprising:
receiving, from a user, a request to access restricted components of the mobile device; displaying an authentication interface that requests a passcode input from a user; receiving at least one incorrect passcode input from the user; in response to receiving the at least one incorrect passcode input:
increasing visual disturbances or audible disturbances at the mobile device with each successive incorrect passcode input; displaying a visual alert of a number of incorrect passcode inputs received from the user, wherein the visual alert persists outside of the authentication interface; and in response to a request from the user to exit the authentication interface when a correct passcode input has not been received:
allowing a use of the mobile device to resume without enabling access to the restricted components.
