SYSTEM, METHOD, AND DEVICE OF DETECTING IDENTITY OF A USER OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

A method for confirming identity of a user of a mobile electronic device, the method including: receiving touch data from a touch-screen of the mobile electronic device; receiving acceleration data from an accelerometer of the mobile electronic device; correlating between the touch data and the acceleration data; based on the correlating, generating a user-specific trait indicative of said user. The method further includes storing a reference value of the user-specific trait, indicative of said user; in a subsequent usage session of the mobile electronic device, generating a current value of the user-specific trait correlating between touch data and acceleration data; and based on a comparison between the current value of the user-specific trait and the reference value of the user-specific trait, determining whether or not a current user of the mobile electronic device is an authorized user of the mobile electronic device.

1. A method for confirming identity of a user of an electronic device, the method comprising:
receiving touch data from a touch-screen of the electronic device; receiving acceleration data from an accelerometer of the electronic device; determining a relation between the touch data and the acceleration data; based on said relation between the touch data and the acceleration data, generating a user-specific trait indicative of said user of said electronic device; storing, either locally within said electronic device or on a remote server, a reference value of said user-specific trait; in a subsequent usage session, generating and storing a current value of the user-specific trait indicating relation between touch data and acceleration data; and based on a comparison process between (A) the current value of the user-specific trait that was generated, and (B) the reference value of the user-specific trait that was previously generated, determining whether or not a current user of the smartphone is an authorized user of the smartphone.
