Q-A: Towards the Solution of Usability-Security Tension in User Authentication

Users often choose passwords that are easy to remember but also easy to guess by attackers. Recent studies have revealed the vulnerability of textual passwords to shoulder surfing and keystroke loggers. It remains a critical challenge in password research to develop an authentication scheme that addresses these security issues, in addition to offering good memorability. Motivated by psychology ...

A Two Factor Authentication System for Touchscreen Mobile Devices Using Static Keystroke Dynamics and Password

The number of touchscreen mobile devices are rapidly increasing each day and so are the number of people that use them. Username-password combination is the most common method of authentication but has many vulnerabilities like shoulder surfing, social engineering, brute force attacks, key-loggers, etc. Keystroke Dynamics provides a novel approach to strengthen this existing method. Typing rhyt...

Testing the effects of wave exposure, site, and behavior on intertidal mussel body temperatures: applications and limits of temperature logger design

The rocky intertidal mussel Mytilus californianus is exposed to potentially damaging thermal conditions during low tide. However, because the temperatures of ectothermic organisms are driven by multiple climatic factors, we do not fully understand what the body temperatures of intertidal invertebrates are under field conditions, or how thermal stress varies between intertidal sites. We designed...

Muddying The Multiword Expression Waters: How Cognitive Demand Affects Multiword Expression Production

Multiword expressions (MWEs) are vexing for linguists, psycholinguists and computational linguists, as they are hard to define, detect and parse. However, previous studies have not taken into account the cognitive constraints under which MWEs are produced or comprehended. We present a new modality for studying MWEs, keystroke dynamics. We ask subjects to respond to a variety of questions, varyi...
