Abstract:
In one aspect, a first device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to access a first network connection history for a second device different from the first device. The instructions are also executable to determine in a first instance whether to authenticate the second device based on the first network connection history and to authenticate the second device based on a determination to authenticate the second device.
