Just look at to open it up: A biometric verification facility for password autofill to protect electronic documents
Abstrakt
Electronic documents constitute specific units of information, and protecting them against unauthorized access is a challenging task. This is because a password protected document may be stolen from its host computer or intercepted while on transfer and exposed to unlimited offline attacks. The key issue is, therefore, making document passwords hard to crack. We propose to augment a common text password authentication interface to encrypted documents with a biometric facial identity verification providing highly personalized security mechanism based on pseudo-identities. In consequence the encrypted document can be unlocked with the legitimate user’s face, while for everyone else stays encrypted with a hard to crack text password. This paper makes two contributions: (1) The proposed scheme enables password autofill without referring to any external service, which significantly limits the possibilities of an attack by adversaries when opening, reading and editing the protected document, (2) By the adoption of biometric verification techniques enabling fine-tuning of false acceptance and false rejection rates, it provides for responsible adaptation to users.
