Bio password — Keystroke dynamic approach to secure mobile devices

The objective of the paper is to provide how a biopassword is using keystroke dynamics technology to deliver security for mobile devices to monitor and authenticate users. Mobile devices have outgrown their initial use for telephony and now have added functionality such web browsing and m-commerce. Depending on the specific area of usage of the device, the importance and hence the sensitivity of the data stored in it changes. As a result, there is a need to secure the data and to protect the devices from loss or theft. The users of these mobile devices have authentication method of PIN i.e. (Personal Identification Numbers). But, with the problems associated with using PIN is Easy to Crack password´s, Sharing the passwords, using the same password for different devices, the need for using sophisticated methods allowing only the legitimate users the access to data and identifying and preventing imposters manifolds many times as the mobility of the computing devices changes. In this paper we examine an emerging biometric technique that aims to identify users based on analyzing habitual rhythm patterns in the way they type.
