Fast Continuous User Authentication Using Distance Metric Fusion of Free-Text Keystroke Data

Keystroke dynamics are a powerful behavioral biometric capable of determining user identity and for continuous authentication. It is an unobtrusive method that can complement an existing security system such as a password scheme and provides continuous user authentication. Existing methods record all keystrokes and use n-graphs that measure the timing between consecutive keystrokes to distinguish between users. Current state-of-the-art...
