Behavioural biometrics – examples
- Common behavioural biometric applications include gait, keystroke recognition, keyboard mouse manipulation, control of touchscreens in terms of hand pressure and gestures, handwriting style, and signatures etc. as well as more recent modalities such as heartbeat and eye movements.
- The financial services industry is seeking new customer-oriented authentication methods to replace PINs and passwords in an increasingly competitive market. Biometric solutions are being developed using both physiological attributes e.g., fingerprints in chips on bank cards and behavioural biometrics that will use continuous authentication to verify customers’ identities as they use their devices, such as smartphones and computer terminals, during transactions.
