Abstract

Behavioral biometric based systems as a solution of authentication challenge are appealing because of various reasons – unlike other password based or physiological property based systems, there is no chance of acquiring behavioral properties by someone else. In the proposed work, mouse interaction dynamics has been exploited for user authentication purpose. User’s behavior on mouse is unique and can be taken as biometric property. A graphical panel has been designed for acquiring user pattern and a grouping approach has been applied to reduce the size of the pattern. Results are very encouraging and indicate that the designed graphical panel can effectively classify the legitimate users and imposters.
