With the increase concern on data access and data protection, highlighted
by identity thefts and data break-ins or corporation and personal
computer, there is a renaissance in the research of identification systems
that are reliable and tamper-proof. The good old username and password has
been the granddaddy of identification in the computer age. Recently the
focus has been shifted to biometrics. However, the biometric
identification that most people are familiar with revolves around
fingerprint, retinal/iris, or voice recognition. Well, biometrics is
deeper than that. It deals with such basic aspects of human behavioral
distinctions such as your keyboard clicking rhythm, your writing style,
and your hand script patterns. So, even if you have multiple alias and/or
anonymous accounts on the Internet, the way you do things on-line may
still reveal your true identity. Read full article on this research here
