Passwords May Become Obsolete
How you type may be more important than the keys you tap
Remembering a clunky password could become a thing of the past, according to researchers at Iowa State University.
Morris Chang, an associate professor of engineering, and his team are working on keystroke authentication—a way of identifying you by the way you type and how long you pause between keystrokes. Ultimately, such a technique could block unauthorized users based on their typing patterns from gaining access to an account.
