Research Purpose • Assist in Data Collection • Understand Biometric Security • Improve Authentication System • What Features are best at Authentication? • 2008 US Higher Education Opportunity Act • Mobile Device Authentication
Biometric Technology • Physical versus Behavioral characteristics • Keystrokes biometrics • Physiological biometrics • Use a person’s physical attributes • Ex. fingerprint, face or iris recognition for identification of user identity. • Behavioral biometrics • Use a person’s speech, writing, or keystrokes for suchverification.
Literature Review • Long-text-input keystroke studies at Pace University. • Touchscreen input for continuous authentication at University of Oxford. • Passive user authentication at Carnegie Mellon University.
Project Details • 10 college participants • 3 days of data gathering • Android phone, recorded features and gestures; • Text inputs • Number pad inputs • Other inputs (scrolling, pinching, etc.)
Project Details Keyboard Recorded Features: • Duration • Transitions • Pressure Gesture Recorded Features • Locations of touch • Major/Minor Axis of touch • Touch Timing • Gyroscope Recording
Hardware A variety of Android devices were used to capture data, including: • LG Nexus 5 • LG Nexus 4 • Sony Xperia Z1 Pros of Android: • Ease of Data Capture (lots of sensors) • Open Source (Java platform)
Software • Android Development Environments: 1. Eclipse 2. NetBeans • Both Java IDEs • Data Collection Apps: • Biometric Soft Keyboard • Text Data Entry & Numeric Data Entry • Biometric Gestures Capture
Experiments Scenario 1 - Numeric Input: The numeric data samples were collected using the "Numeric Data Entry" app which consisted in entering the numeric sequence (9141937761) followed by a enter key. Scenario 2 - Text Input: The character data samples were collected using the "Text Data Entry" app which involved entering 2 sets of characters similar to composing a large text message.
Experiments continued Scenario 3 - Gestures: The touch gestures data samples were collected using the biometric gesture app. The 1st phase was to zoom in and out to locate an object within a picture. The 2nd phase was to zoom in on a question click on the answer them zoom out and go to the next questions. One of our advantages was that we had no restrictions. Since this is a behavioral study each subject was unique to how they enter their keystroke.
Literature Construction • Learned the proper means of writing about research. • Developed real world experience. • Learned the challenges of working in groups on a schedule
Conclusion • We were able to take part in a graduate study. • Deeper understanding of the experiment process. • Chance to develop professional research publication. • We have hopes of implementing a Biometric System in the future.
