Password-less Behaviometrics Authentication for Touchscreen Devices

Technology Benefits

A movement-based single user authentication system has many advantages over existing username/password combinations and even multi-factor authentication:ΓÇó Nothing to remember. (Does not require memorization of any passwords, secret questions, or PIN numbers.)ΓÇó Nothing to lose. (Current two-factor authentication uses cell phones as the 2nd factor, which could be lost or stolen.)ΓÇó Nothing to add. (Does not require any special hardware such as fingerprint readers.)ΓÇó Impossible to steal or copy. (Natural biological variability in human movement insures that theft of the authentication data is impossible.)Provides an unparalleled level of security that allows users to safely and securely conduct transactions on another personΓÇÖs device without compromising their online security.

Technology Application

All touchscreen devices, particularly smartphonesOnline banking and commerce

Title: Method for single oxygen atom incorporation into digested peptides using peptidases
Usefulness: Method for single oxygen atom incorporation into digested peptides using peptidases
Summary: (M1) is useful for incorporating single oxygen atom into a digested of a protein using peptidase. (M2) is useful for the identification of a disease, symptom, mutation or biological condition in an animal. (All claimed.) (M1) is useful for proteolytic 18 O labeling in proteomics.
Novelty: Incorporating single oxygen atom into digested peptide of protein using peptidase, by optimizing buffer of peptidase reaction, in which single oxygen atom is incorporated into peptide, digesting protein with peptidase in optimized buffer

*Abstract

Researchers at Ohio University have created a new secure, single-factor, behavioral biometric user authentication using movements for all touchscreen devices. The invention is a method of single factor user authentication using movements generated on the touchscreen. The intent of this invention is to create a secure method of user authentication that is convenient and impossible to hack into or falsify.
