Computer automated retrieval of previously known access code(s) for a security device controlling access

Abstract:

Automatic retrieval using an electronic device of a previously known access code for a security device which includes identifying, using a computer, a security mechanism based on a proximity of a user to the security mechanism. The proximity of the user to the security mechanism is determined using location services for a mobile device of the user and first historical data which indicates a location of the security mechanism. Second historical data is analyzed, in response to identifying the security mechanism. An identified access code is selected based on the analysis of the second historical data. The selecting of the identified access code includes a reference relationship between the reference content, the security mechanism, and the access code. The identified access code is provided to the mobile device of the user for communication to the user, for the user to enter the code on the security mechanism.
