USER BIOMETRICS AUTHENTICATION (Comprehensive Analysis)
As the capabilities of mobile devices increase, their security is becoming more of an issue. Passwords and PINs are the lowest forms of security, yet they are the most widely used. Continuous authentication using behavioral biometrics and multimodal biometrics provides a way to greatly increase security. Using behavioral biometrics, such as linguistic profiling, keystroke dynamics, and behavior profiling, with text messages is a good way to analyze data and determine the identity of the user. Deciding which forms of authentication to use depends on the system the security is being provided for. User authentication in the workplace is a major concern. An effortless way to improve security would be to use a biometric-enabled bracelet to authorize and de-authorize a user when using a computer and when walking away. This book extensively surveyed the biometric user-authentication and particularly focused on mobile biometric authentication including emerging biometric authentication processes.
Biometric User Authentication for IT Security

Biometric user authentication techniques evoke an enormous interest by science, industry and society. Scientists and developers constantly pursue technology for automated determination or confirmation of the identity of subjects based on measurements of physiological or behavioral traits of humans. Biometric User Authentication for IT Security: From Fundamentals to Handwriting conveys general principals of passive (physiological traits such as fingerprint, iris, face) and active (learned and trained behavior such as voice, handwriting and gait) biometric recognition techniques to the reader. Unlike other publications in this area that concentrate on passive schemes, this professional book reflects a more comprehensive analysis of one particular active biometric technique: handwriting. Aspects that are thoroughly discussed include sensor characteristic dependency, attack scenarios, and the generation of cryptographic keys from handwriting.
Continuous Authentication Using Biometrics: Data, Models, and Metrics
User authentication is the process of verifying whether the identity of a user is genuine prior to granting him or her access to resources or services in a secured environment. Traditionally, user authentication is performed statically at the point of entry of the system; however, continuous authentication (CA) seeks to address the shortcomings of this method by providing increased session security and combating insider threat. Continuous Authentication Using Biometrics: Data, Models, and Metrics presents chapters on continuous authentication using biometrics that have been contributed by the leading experts in this recent, fast growing research area. These chapters collectively provide a thorough and concise introduction to the field of biometric-based continuous authentication. The book covers the conceptual framework underlying continuous authentication and presents detailed processing models for various types of practical continuous authentication applications.
