We study how the third dimension can be leveraged to improve the usability and security of authentication. (A) shows the sample real world room used for the study. (B) is a replica of the real world room. This screenshot depicts a view of the virtual scene from the viewpoint of the user during authentication process. When more than one object is selected, a blue connecting line appears. (C) is the view from the real world during user authentication in the virtual scene with a HMD, namely the HTC Vive [22].

“…However, such methods are only applicable to a device equipped with a three-dimensional display. Another kind of secure visual channel can be realized if an additional wearable computing device with a private display, for example, Google Glass, is available [34,35]. Finally, there are visual obfuscation methods using hand-shielding effects [36,37] and fake cursors [38].…”

User authentication is a process in which a user of a system proves his/her identity to acquire access permission. An effective user authentication method should be both secure and usable. In an attempt to achieve these two objectives, Bianchi et al. recently proposed novel unimodal PIN-entry methods that use either audio or vibration cues. This paper analyzes the security of their method, in particular, the vibration version of one of their proposals, Timelock. A probabilistic analysis and real attack experiment reveal that the security level guaranteed by Timelock is lower than that claimed in Bianchi et al. 's paper. As countermeasures to this problem, three PIN-entry methods are proposed and a usability study is performed. According to the result of this study, a simple modification may improve the security significantly while retaining the design philosophy of unimodal systems. In addition, the proposed methods address the PIN compatibility issue of Timelock and they can be used to enter a legacy numerical PIN without any change in the PIN.

“…There is also a method that uses a back-of-device panel [20], but this interface is not available in most current off-the-shelf smartphones. Finally, we remark that another kind of secure visual channel may be implemented if an additional device with short-range communication capability is available [21,22].…”

Passwords and personal identification numbers (PINs) are convenient and ubiquitous, but they are quite vulnerable to attackers who stand near the user (“shoulder-surfers”). This problem may be partially resolved by changing the user interface, but previous solutions of this kind still give shoulder-surfing attackers a significant advantage over brute force search. This paper provides a novel solution based on three dimensions, particularly suitable for glasses-free three-dimensional (3D) displays found in many smartphones and handheld game consoles. A user at the “3D spot” may log in easily, while nearby shoulder-surfers gain no advantage. A detailed experimental usability analysis is performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in comparison to the existing methods.
