I Want to Know Your Hand: Authentication on Commodity Mobile Phones Based on Your Hand's Vibrations.
Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies(2022)
摘要
We present HoldPass, the first system that can authenticate a user while they simply hold their phone. It uses the heart activity as biometric trait sensed via the hand vibrations in response to the cardiac cycle - a process known as ballistocardiography (BCG). While heart activity has been used for biometric authentication, sensing it through hand-based ballistocardiography (Hand-BCG) using standard sensors found on commodity mobile phones is an uncharted territory. Using a combination of in-depth qualitative analysis and large-scale quantitative analysis involving over 100 volunteers, we paint a detailed picture of opportunities and challenges. Authentication based on Hand-BCG is shown to be feasible but the signal is weak, uniquely prone to motion artifacts and does not land itself to the common approach of alignment-based authentication. HoldPass addresses these challenges by introducing a novel alignment-free authentication scheme that builds on asynchronous signal slicing and a data-driven algorithm for identifying a reduced set of features for characterizing a user. We implement HoldPass and evaluate it using a multi-modal approach: a large-case study involving 112 volunteers and targeted studies with a smaller set of volunteers over a period of several months. The data shows that HoldPass provides an authentication accuracy and user experience on par with or better than state-of-the-art systems with stronger requirements on hardware and/or user participation.
