Download or read book Transparent User Authentication written by Nathan Clarke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-08-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking text examines the problem of user authentication from a completely new viewpoint. Rather than describing the requirements, technologies and implementation issues of designing point-of-entry authentication, the book introduces and investigates the technological requirements of implementing transparent user authentication – where authentication credentials are captured during a user’s normal interaction with a system. This approach would transform user authentication from a binary point-of-entry decision to a continuous identity confidence measure. Topics and features: discusses the need for user authentication; reviews existing authentication approaches; introduces novel behavioural biometrics techniques; examines the wider system-specific issues with designing large-scale multimodal authentication systems; concludes with a look to the future of user authentication.

Download or read book Integrating a Usable Security Protocol into User Authentication Services Design Process written by Christina Braz and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an intrinsic conflict between creating secure systems and usable systems. But usability and security can be made synergistic by providing requirements and design tools with specific usable security principles earlier in the requirements and design phase. In certain situations, it is possible to increase usability and security by revisiting design decisions made in the past; in others, to align security and usability by changing the regulatory environment in which the computers operate. This book addresses creation of a usable security protocol for user authentication as a natural outcome of the requirements and design phase of the authentication method development life cycle.
