MOTION-BASED IDENTITY AUTHENTICATION OF AN INDIVIDUAL WITH A COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE

摘要

Systems, methods and computer storage mediums securely authenticate an identity of an individual based on a pattern that is traced by the individual. Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to prompting an individual with a pattern to trace when attempting to authenticate the identity of the individual during an identity authentication session. Motion-based behavior data that is generated by motions executed by the individual as the individual traces the pattern is captured via a motion-capturing sensor. The motion-based behavior data is unique to the individual and has a low likelihood of being duplicated by an unauthorized individual attempting to fraudulently pose as the individual. The captured motion-based behavior data is compared to previously captured motion-based behavior data from previous traces of the pattern completed by the individual. The identity of the individual is authenticated when the motion-based behavior data is within a threshold of the previously captured motion-based behavior data.

1. A method for securely authenticating an identity of an individual using a communications device based on a pattern that is traced by the individual, comprising:
identifying a defined pattern by a user interface of the communications device to the individual for the individual to trace; receiving a traced pattern generated from continuously tracing the defined pattern by the individual from an initial point on the defined pattern to an end point on the defined pattern via the user interface of the communications device; and comparing motion-based behavior data with previously captured motion-based behavior data to thereby authenticate the identity of the individual.
