Mouse with embedded camera and embedded microphone for active biometric authentication

Abstract

The invention provides a device and a method for frequent verifications of the identity of a user performed during a long session of client-server communication by secure exchange of keys between the client and the server. The device is a computer mouse with embedded camera and embedded microphone. The camera is used to make pictures of a user's palm; the microphone is used to register a sound of user's pulse. The method has zero privacy leakage because the user is represented at the server by an array of random numbers, which have nothing to do with his biometric data. The security of the system is difficult to break because the exchange keys are different on each request/response.
