ABSTRACT:
A wireless terminal receives an operation request from a user and accesses a plurality of location based access rules based upon the operation request, each location based access rules including a location parameter and corresponding authentication requirements. A location of the wireless terminal is determined. A location based access rule from the plurality of location based access rules is selected based upon the location. The wireless terminal prompts the user to meet the corresponding authentication requirements. When the user meets the corresponding authentication requirements of the selected location based access rule, the wireless terminal satisfies the operation request. When the user does not meet the corresponding authentication requirements of the selected location based access rule, the operation request is denied. In an alternate embodiment, access to the requested operation is either granted or denied based upon the location of the wireless terminal.
