Abstract:
A device may collect environmental information surrounding the device. Based on the collected environmental information, the device may automatically identify a potentially secured location that has lower security risk. When a potentially secured location is identified, the device may prompt the user to setup a security profile having reduced security requirement for the secured location. The device may store and associate the security profile with the secured location. The device may activate the security profile with reduced security requirement when the device is in the secured area. Further, the security profile may require that certain features of the device be disabled when the device is in the secured location.
