Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques for changing a required authentication type based on a request for a particular type of information. For example, consider a situation where a user has asked a virtual assistant “who owns this device?” By default, the device may allow biometric authentication to unlock. In response to identification of the owner by the virtual assistant, however, the device may require one or more other types of authentication (e.g., manual entry of a passcode) to unlock the device. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques may increase the security of the device by making it more difficult for malicious entities to obtain the sensitive information or to access device functionality once the sensitive information has been disclosed. In various embodiments, this may prevent or reduce unauthorized access to the device.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a finger biometric sensor and a processor and a memory coupled thereto. The processor is capable of performing a first matching to determine a first matching score of sensed finger biometric data against finger biometric template data stored in the memory, and indicating a match and updating the finger biometric template data when the first matching score exceeds a first threshold. The processor is also capable of performing a second matching of the sensed finger biometric data against the stored finger biometric template data to determine a second matching score when the first matching score does not exceed the first threshold and updating the finger biometric template data stored in the memory when the second matching score is above a second threshold. The second matching is slower but more accurate than the first matching.
