User Identification Through Keystroke Biometrics

The increasing use of automated information systems together with our pervasive use of computers has greatly simplified our lives, while making us overwhelmingly dependent on computers and digital networks. Technological achievements over the past decade have resulted in improved network services, particularly in the areas of performance, reliability, and availability, and have significantly reduced operating costs due to the more efficient utilization of these advancements.

Some authentication mechanisms recently developed requires users to perform a particular action and then some behavior of that action is examined. The traditional method of signature verification falls in this category. Handwritten signatures are extremely difficult to forge without assistance of some copier.
