There are several efforts done to give solutions for restrictions on the implicit authentication. These efforts will be discussed in this section. Traditional authentication methods depend on possession of private data (i.e. passwords, pattern). Also, physiological biometrics based on algorithms that use distinct personal features, such as fingerprints or iris patterns. Lately, behavior-based authentication uses the private behavior for users, e.g., gestures and gaits. Currently, there are many different physiological biometrics for authentication, such as fingerprints and face patterns [2], and iris patterns [3]. However, physiology-based authentication requires user help in the authentication. For example, fingerprint authentication …show more content…
They review methods and features used for this field. They suggested an approach in which a user must enter gesture in any direction to build user’s model to be matched later through a score computation. However, no implementation is done to show accuracy achieved by the proposed framework.
Jain et al. [11] suggested an algorithm to compare the Equal Error Rates(EER) obtained from the touch screen sensor with the rates of keystrokes in hardware keyboard. A developed keyboard application replaces the system keyboard to capture features in any application that uses a keyboard. The features are then stored in a SQLite database and classified by a one-class SVM. This method achieved EER of 10.5% for keystroke data, 3.5% for touch data and 2.8% for all data (touch and keystroke). However, Additional sensors on the devices, such as gyroscopic and rotational sensors, are ignored in this study. These sensors could differentiate accurately touch data from the keyboard timing data.
Feng Yao el al [12] have proposed and evaluated a Fuzzy Logic based implicit authentication scheme for mobile access control. That can maintain a high recognition of legal user activities while enabling timely detection of adversary user behavior by feeding dynamically computed aggregate score and threshold-based parameters into Fuzzy Logic system to determine the trust status of current user activity. The proposed Fuzzy-Logic-based authentication
Biometrics technology aims at utilizing major and distinctive characteristics such as behavioral or biological, for the sake of positively indentifying people. With the help of a combination of hardware and specific identifying sets of rules, a basic human attribute, automated biometric recognition mimics to distinguish and categorize other people as individual and unique. But the challenges surrounding biometrics are great as well.
Portable equipment often doesn't need passwords enabled. Mobile device apparatuses often need passwords on validating clients and control entry should information saved on the gadgets. a large number unit have those specialized foul abilities should backing passwords, particular ID number numbers (PIN), or design screen bolts to Confirmation. Some versatile apparatuses likewise incorporate a biometric spectator to examine a finger impression to verification. However, ane data demonstrates that shoppers sometimes utilize these instruments. Additionally, if clients would utilization A secret key alternately PIN they often decide passwords alternately PINs that camwood make effortlessly decided alternately bypassed, for example, 1234 or 0000.
Biometrics is a method of identifying an individual based on characteristics that they possess, typically physiological features such as a fingerprint, hand, iris, retina, face, voice, and even DNA. Some methods of biometrics security even use multiple physiological features or multimodal biometrics to provide superior security than a single form of biometrics can provide. Why are biometrics important in the field of information security? Biometrics provide a remarkable amount of security for information because biometrics are unique to each person, and thus cannot be lost, copied, or shared with another individual. This security allows for biometrics to provide a means to reliability authenticate personnel. The importance of biometrics can be further divided into the history of biometrics and why it was devised, past implementations of biometrics, current implementations of biometrics, and future implementations of biometrics.
Identification processes are significantly more complex and error prone than verification processes. Biometrics technologies are indicators of authentication assurance with results based on a predetermined threshold with measurable False Accept Rates and False Reject Rates.
Generally, there are two key forms of monitor interfaces that should be highly considered in the process of designing different computer applications namely the multi-touch screen interface and the mouse-driven interface. The controlling actions that are carried out by different computer users tend to have different preferences when it comes to the use of different computer applications uses (Dearden, 2008). As such, the application of the multi-touch screen gives computer users an opportunity to interact with the computer applications via a touch screen that will give them a chance to tap, swipe, long tap, and pinch the screens for purposes of performing their required
In order to protect users of computer systems and to secure network-based transactions, demand is increasing for improved user authentication procedures to establish the identity of an actual user and to bar access to a terminal to anyone who is unauthorized. Personal identification using biometrics, i.e., a person’s physical or behavioral characteristics has come to attract increased attention as a possible solution to this issue and one that might offer reliable systems at a reasonable cost. While traditionally this technology has been available only with such expensive, high-end systems as those used in law enforcement and other government applications, today many personal–level applications have also become
We live in a world today, in which technology moves at a very rapid pace. Many of these technological advances can be used to make our everyday lives easier and safer. One of these new technologies is Biometrics. Biometrics is the process of measuring a person’s physical properties. This would include measuring things like fingerprints, retinas, odor, vein structure on the back of the hand and many other things. Biometrics is a very important topic because it would create better security precautions for certain places that need to be secure. Biometrics will make our society safer by only allowing authorized people out of secure facilities and by keeping the unauthorized people out. Throughout the rest of this
Examples of the different types of biometrics that individuals use every day are: using a fingerprint to lock a cellphone, automatically getting tagged in Facebook photos, and simply saying a phase to unlock a door or computer. Though there are many different types of biometrics systems currently on the market, they all “successfully identify and authenticate people with a high degree of accuracy” (Coleman, 2000) and are used by people in many different career fields.
Our Smartphones are touchscreen and we are used to touchscreen tablets so now is the time for touchscreen laptops. One advantage these laptops are having is the Keyboard on which most of the computer functions are dependent. The machine on which you can ‘Touch’ or ‘Type’.
For this report a human-machine system had to be chosen to analyse. The chosen product is a mobile phone, more specifically a Nokia 6220 (as pictured below). This product is relevant to this project because it encompasses many of the different topics that will be considered and when
Technology is constantly changing, leading us to adapt to its innovation. However, one aspect of technology has stood the test of time for a long time. Passwords as a form of authenticating and securing your digital accounts have not budged much. But with the rise of cybercrime, it seems the old way of doing things is finally having to pave way for something new: two-factor authentication.
Biometric technology offers an alternative to the most used system currently in place in most operations: passwords or personal identification numbers (PIN). Instead of users inputting their password or PIN, users interact with a computer terminal that will scan their finger, face, voice, retina, etc. to identify them. Many of the next generation personal computer systems will have integrated biometric technology so that no external hardware is needed. In the mean time, users can buy small peripherals, like a mouse with integrated biometric technology or a small finger terminal for finger scans, to secure their personal computers.
Passwords for access to personal phones, computers, online portals, and websites has become very prevalent and the best practice for authentication. Additionally, passwords authenticate mobile phones, computer networks and databases for many software applications. However, ensuring that passwords are encrypted, and safe have become one of the greatest challenges for most organizations. This paper will review some of the vulnerabilities of the use of passwords and provide controls to implementation to assist with the management and handling of passwords.
Authentication is the only method which protects information or data of an individual or organization from a second party to access. Based upon the confidentiality of that particular data or information, the level of authentication depends. Now-a-days, all this data and information what we are talking about is getting digitized all around the world. For this digitized data or information to be secure, a proper authentication procedure must be set. This arise the need for an authentication secret which belongs to the category “Something we know” to come into picture. These secrets authenticate each secret holder as the authorized legitimate user to access their particular account. Technology is
Biometric technologies are getting better and finely tuned. The rate of false readings and errors has sharply fallen. However it still requires careful consideration and planning to implement a biometric identification system. They are most costly and complicated to implement as compared with other authentication systems. A proper evaluation of the system is important before purchasing any biometric system. A thorough risk analysis is necessary. In many cases biometrics may be overkill. Biometrics must be used if there is high level of risk involved. Customer acceptance is also important when logging on to company websites. Home users might not be ready to install biometrics on home computers for online banking.
