Abstract:

This paper shows that contrary to the beliefs of prior studies, typing patterns of inpiduals can be imitated. Our results from a large scale user study of over 80 participants show that various factors such as the password used, gender, monetary incentives, time allowed and information about the target typing pattern affects the success rate of the attacker.
