Biometric recognition, or simply biometrics, refers to automated recognition of individuals based on their behavioural and biological characteristics. The success of fingerprints in forensic science and law enforcement applications, coupled with growing concerns related to border control, financial fraud and cyber security, has generated a huge interest in using fingerprints, as well as other b...

• We present a new HCI database, BehavePassDB, with novel data collection approach. exploit the touchscreen and background sensor for mobile authentication. employ Deep Learning approach based on LSTM to benchmark BehavePassDB. evaluate two different impostor scenarios considering real-life use cases. influence of device bias authentication performance. Mobile behavioral biometrics have become ...

Information security and verify the user's identity has become one of the biggest concerns of institutions and individuals; this interest emerged many types of authentication. Security field uses three different ways; in the oldest documentation of these methods depending on the specific information such as a password or name. The second type depends on something you have his key, such as ...

As intelligent mobile devices become more popular, security threats targeting them are increasing. The resource constraints of mobile devices, such as battery life and computing power, however, make it harder to handle such threats effectively. The existing physical and behavioural biometric identification methods ‐ looked upon as good alternatives ‐ a...

Biometric signatures, or biometrics, are used to identify individuals by measuring certain unique physical and behavioral characteristics. Individuals must be identified to allow or prohibit access to secure areas—or to enable them to use personal digital devices such as, computer, personal digital assistant (PDA), or mobile phone. Virtually all biometric methods are implemented using the follo...

Biometric authentication using mobile devices is becoming a convenient and important means to secure access to remote services such as telebanking and electronic transactions. Such an application poses a very challenging pattern recognition problem: the training samples are often sparse and they cannot represent the biometrics of a person. The query features are easily affected by the acquisiti...

Most mobile phones and tablets support only two access control device states: locked and unlocked. We investigated how well allor-nothing device access control meets the need of users by interviewing 20 participants who had both a smartphone and tablet. We find all-or-nothing device access control to be a remarkably poor fit with users’ preferences. On both phones and tablets, participants want...

T here is no need to remember complex combinations of random numbers and characters. From now on, you are the password: your fingerprint, face, iris, gait or odour—any of your potentially unique attributes—can theoretically be used to identify you. This is the idea behind biometrics, which was once confined to the realm of spy movies and high-security facilities, but is now increasingly common ...
