With technology becoming increasingly prevalent, security has become even more important and 'BioCatch' theft detectors aim to capitalize on that discretely. Monitoring the way a user uses their device, 'BioCatch' can detect when an unidentified person is using the technology it's installed on. The result is an invisible and accurate security system that removes the hassle of entering a password to use your gadgets.
The system works by building a profile of the gadget's user through their behavioral patterns. The way a user types, uses their mouse or swipes a screen is recorded to build a comprehensive picture of that user's mannerisms. This type of profiling is very accurate because of the wide array of typing and swiping styles. In a sense, each person has a technological fingerprint. If an unauthorized user gains access to the device, their unfamiliar gestures will trigger BioCatch to immediately secure the gadget.
Habit-Based Theft Detectors
The 'BioCatch' Software Secures Devices Through Mannerisms
Trend Themes
1. Behavioral Biometrics - Companies can develop software that builds a comprehensive picture of user's mannerisms, understanding each individual's actions as a technological fingerprint to secure their devices from unauthorized access.
2. Passive Authentication - Passive authentication systems remove the need to enter passwords and instead rely on monitoring user's behaviors and physical characteristics to provide seamless and secure access to gadgets.
3. Discrete Security - Discrete security systems can be applied in gadget security, providing invisible and accurate detection of unauthorized usage through behavioral biometrics instead of disruptive passwords
Industry Implications
1. Cybersecurity - Companies that specialize in cybersecurity should explore developing behavioral biometric-based security systems as a new and innovative approach to securing devices from unauthorized access.
2. Technology - Companies that produce technology and gadgets can implement passive authentication systems to enhance device security and user experience.
3. Financial Services - Financial service companies can explore discrete security systems for their mobile applications, enhancing user security while minimizing friction with seamless login solutions.
