Improvisation of Biometrics Authentication and Identification through Keystrokes Pattern Analysis

Published: 06 February 2014 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we presented one fresh approach where the authentic user's typing credentials are combined with the password to make authentication convincingly more secure than the usual password used in both offline and online transactions. With the help of empirical data and prototype implementation of the approach, we justified that our approach is ease of use, improved in security and performance. In normal approach different keystroke event timing is used for user profile creation. Keystroke latency and duration is inadequate for user authentication, which motivates exploring other matrices. In this paper we proposed combination of different matrices and calculation of degree of disorder on keystroke latency as well as duration to generate user profile. Statistical analysis on these matrices evaluates enhanced authentication process.
