Inconspicuous Personal Computer Protection with Touch-Mouse

摘要

We present a hassle-free personal information protection design that continuously monitors user identity with a Microsoft touch-mouse [1] under a windows-based computer environment. This is the first design which investigates the relationship between time-indexed pressure map trajectories extracted from a touch-mouse and user behavior patterns categorized by common mouse action primitives. This design serves as an assistive method to enhance existing password and biometric based security mechanisms, enabling continuous and unobtrusive personal identity monitoring. Commercialized windows-based systems can be seamlessly integrated with the proposed system and this design can offer a convenient and lightweight solution for physical computer intrusion detection.
