Keystroke dynamics - a new biometric method for online authentication.
Q. Indian researchers have developed a new biometric method for making online authentication process secure, reliable and cheap. This new method is:- Published on 15 Sep 15a. Retina scans
b. Facial recognition
c. Fingerprint scans
d. Keystroke dynamics
ANSWER: Keystroke dynamics
A biometric measures unique human characteristics and Indian researchers J. Visumathia and P. Jesu Jayarin have discovered a new keystroke algorithm which uses unique online human typing patterns to make authentications online reliable. Internet use entails obstacles like loss of password, capabilities of hackers and easy access to methods such as bots and phishing, which can be eliminated through the use of keystroke dynamics as a biometric. Keystroke template algorithm measures existing models to improve precision and can be used as a viable e-security measure.
