So what is it exactly?

The word “Behaviometrics” derives from the terms “behavioral” and “biometrics”. “Behavioral” refers to the way a human person behaves and “biometrics”, in an information security context, refers to technologies and methods that measure and analyzes biological characteristics of the human body for the purpose of authentication. For e.g. fingerprints, eye retina and voice patterns. In other words Behaviometrics is a measurable behavior used to recognize or verify the identity of a person. Behaviometrics focuses on behavioral patterns rather than physical attributes. – Definition & Concept by www.behaviosec.com

How does it work like Security?

From individual to individual the way you interact changes, you tend to change with the circumstances. But what stays constant are your gestures, movement of the hands, shoulder, eyes etc. But in case of interaction with material things, humans tend to develop a pattern of moving hands, feet, eyes, etc.  For e.g. you may swipe on your screen to the left, the other does it right or criss –cross.

There is a unique pattern in interacting with a computer’s main components like the keyboard, mouse and graphical interface. For e.g. a person is surfing on a particular browser and opens three main sites. If he/she has performed similar actions a couple of times, the next time, the browser will suggest them the same by analyzing the repetitive actions.

The study of the user’s unique handling is known as Behaviometrics

Every human behaves in a specific manner and develops this unique pattern which consists of “semi behaviors” which culminate in a more unique pattern of that person. These semi-behaviors form biometric features. The way you move your hand changes from one person to other. And if you write in your native language, then it may be impossible to copy or imitate the behavior.

The way you type, swipe or surf is compared with the stored Behaviometric pattern. It will examine and study the logging in patterns, movements and respectively the software will calculate the possibility of it being the correct user or matching behavior.
