Abstract:
Systems and methods for securing access to a mobile device are disclosed. A method includes: transmitting, by a computer device, a tone to a surface of an object; detecting, by the computer device, a frequency response from the object based on the transmitted tone; determining, by the computer device, that the detected frequency response from the surface of the object conforms to a stored frequency response; and unlocking, by the computer device, the computer device based on the determining.
