Holistic and Procedural Features for Authenticating Users

Security systems help to protect machines or sensitive data from unauthorized users.The need for better and cheap security systems is growing with the growth in technologies and hacking skills of the people.Various techniques are available that can provide some level of security.The problem of unintended side-effects of inconsistent experimental condition and environmental variables by restricting user's mouse operation to a tightly-controlled environment has been addressed with the solution of mouse operations as dynamics.Mouse dynamics measures and assesses a user's mouse-behavior characteristic for use as a biometric.For Each mouse operation task both holistic and procedural features are extracted.This type of authentication is very simple and efficient for the users.Then a Nearest Neighbor algorithm is employed for extracting the feature and anytime algorithm for the accuracy and speed.This approach achieves to improve the number of users with a false acceptance rate of 8.75% and a false rejection rate of 7.70%.This approach could lead to a performance boost both in authentication accuracy and authentication time.
