Security of handheld devices • Handheld devices play a major role in our personal and business activities. • Securing data on the devices is critical • Currently, front-line authentication measures are used (ex. Passwords)
Keystroke biometric authentication • Identifying users based on typing patterns • Implicit authentication with minimal user involvement. • The keystroke biometric system at Pace University is an effective authentication measure • Implementing and investigate the viability of PKBS on handheld devices
Virtual Keyboards - iOS • 2007 – the first iPhone • Almost the same keyboard • Special characters • Autocomplete and dictionary
Android keyboards - types • 2009 – first virtual keyboards in Android 1.5 Cupcake • Dictionary and Autocomplete • Special characters • Swype OS Choice: Android
System architecture BioKeyboard (IME service) Settings activity Biometric event Data file Event buffer SQLite database Network
Conclusions • implemented a software keyboard system to capture biometric events • System allows us to run experiments, collect data, and extract features to authenticate users.
Future Work • Developing the feature vector. • System enhancements: • Capturing gesture/Swype input. • Track spelling suggestions.
