Estimating the term…
A method of authenticating a user of a computing device is proposed, together with computing device on which the method is implemented. In the method a modified base image is overlaid with a modified overlay image on a display and at least one of the modified base image and modified overlay image is moved by the user. In addition to the moving, a change in orientation of at least one of the modified base image and the modified overlay image is required. Positive authentication is indicated in response to the base image reference point on the modified base image being aligned with the overlay image reference point on the modified overlay image after moving through at least one other pre-selected reference point.
One or more non-transitory computer readable media having computer readable instructions stored thereon for authenticating a user of a computing device, the computing device having a memory storing a base image and an overlay image, the base image having a base image reference point, and the overlay image having a overlay image reference point, the instructions, when executed by a processor, direct the computing device to:
A method of authenticating a user of a computing device, the computing device having a memory storing a base image and an overlay image, the base image having a base image reference point, and the overlay image having a overlay image reference point, the method comprising:
