Abstract

In this era computer security is an important issue now a days because these are used everywhere to store & process the sensitive data. Specially those used in e-banking, e-commerce, virtual offices, e-learning, distributed, computing & various services over the internet. Using Keystroke dynamics authentication technology can be secured by password from various attacks. This technique is based on human behavior to type their password. Here analysis is done using human behavior with their typing pattern. As keystroke dynamics does not require any hardware, no extra hardware is used. Only software based technology is required for password protection. The result provides emphasis with pleasure security that growing in demand in web-based application.
