Patent attributes
A dual or progressive access level security system and method is disclosed. The system receives or acquires one or more initial access identifiers of the user via an identity reader. In examples, the identity reader is a biometric scanner such as a fingerprint scanner that reads a fingerprint, or an antenna such as a Near Field Communication (NFC) antenna that reads an initial access identifier from a tag within a user device such as a fob or mobile phone or a Bluetooth identifier from the user's mobile computing device. In response to validation of the initial access identifier, the system presents virtual keys for the user to enter an access code. In embodiments, the virtual keys are included within a touchscreen and within a virtual projected keyboard presented by the security system. The security system grants access to the user in response to validation of the access code.
