A New Noise Mingling Approach to Protect the Authentication Password

Kangbin Yim · 2010

This paper proposes effective countermeasures to hardware vulnerability of the keyboard controller. Through the vulnerability, some possible attacker is able to snoop the password string from the keyboard even when keyboard protection software is running. However, it will be impossible for attackers to gather the exact password if the proposed policy is applied though they can sniff the keyboard hardware protocol.
