Abstract
Humans possess a large amount of, and almost limitless, visual memory, that
assists them to remember pictures far better than words. This phenomenon has
recently motivated the computer security researchers' in academia and industry
to design and develop graphical user identification systems (GUISs).
Cognometric GUISs are more memorable than drawmetric GUISs, but takes more time
to authenticate. None of the previously proposed GUISs combines the advantages
of both cognometric and drawmetric systems. A signature personify a person and
a graphical signature is easier to recall than other drawings. This paper
proposes a new graphical Signature-based User Identification System named SUIS.
It is based on a 2D grid technology, that is used to draw, digitize and store
the signature for user identification. SUIS is categorized as both a
cognometric and drawmetric system. Unlike other systems that use 2D grid: We
take one cell in a grid as one pixel in the drawing; for signature matching,
the signature drawn has to follow the same grid cells as the signature stored,
independent of the sequence; and that the system is not based on any machine
learning model. Increasing the number of grid cells increases the password
space, and decreasing the size of the grid cell increases the precision of the
signature. These characteristics makes SUIS: (1) Rigorous enough to be a
password system, but easy enough to be usable. (2) Independent of the language
and device used to draw the signature. (3) Efficient and practical to be used
for online authentication systems.
