Keystroke Authentication

Data-X : Keystroke dynamics based password authentication

Problem Statement:

Two factor authentication is recommended by most major consumer facing applications. However, the extra step, often entering a One-Time-Password, is cumbersome as it adds delay and involves the use of an extra application, usually text message/email, in order to log-in to the original application. This also imposes a lot of cost on the companies. We propose a solution that can replace the existing means of second factor authentication, bring down the costs involved, eliminate external dependencies like network access and with no extra hardware needed.

This project was done under the guidance of Prof. Alexander Fred Ojala, UC Berkeley during DataX1 course in Plaksha TLF.
