Abstract:
1. A method for securing network access, the method comprising: granting, by a server, access to a user after authenticating a login request from the user sent from a secured computer device to the server to validate an identification of the user, wherein the secured computer device is connected via the Internet to a network access device that controls network access from the Internet to an intranet that provides network connectivity to the server; receiving, by the server via the intranet, a network access request from the network access device for allowing the user to access the server through the network access device; sending from the server a network access granted for the user to the network access device, wherein the secured computer device performs periodic authentication operations to validate the identification of the user based on biometric data taken of the user; receiving at the network access device notification from the secured computer device that one of the periodic authentication operations has failed; disabling, by the network access device, network access for the secured computer device to the intranet and the server in response to the notification, wherein access from the secured computer device to the Internet is not disabled; recording images of the user taken while the user is operating the secured computer device; recording screen captures of a display coupled to the secured computer device while access is granted to the user; recording user inputs to the secured computer device while access is granted to the user; and performing optical character recognition (OCR) to identify text in the screen captures, wherein operations of the method are executed by a processor.
