The US military is investing heavily millions δολάρια σε ένα βιομετρικό σύστημα αναγνώρισης (Cognitive Fingerprints) το οποίο θα μπορούσε να αντικαταστήσει τους παραδοσιακούς κωδικούς accesss for Internet users.
As reported by Sky News, the US military has signed a multimillion-dollar deal with researchers at the West Point military academy. The team of researchers is working on the so-called "cognitive fingerprints" , the Cognitive Fingerprints, which not only use the physical characteristics of one's identification but also the characteristics of the behavior.
West Point researchers hope to develop cognitive algorithms δακτυλικών αποτυπωμάτων οι οποίοι μαθαίνουν να αναγνωρίζουν πρότυπα συμπεριφοράς με βάση το πώς χρησιμοποιεί κάποιος την κινητή του συσκευή. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι ο algorithm it will recognize how someone operates the smartphone screen, and how they move the cursor. All these standards are identified and will be applied in order to verify the identity of the user.
In a paper the researchers explain:
"Just like when you touch something with your finger you leave a fingerprint behind, when you interact with technology you create a pattern of behaviors based on how your mind processes information. So you leave behind the "cognitive fingerprints."
If the project is successfully deployed, this identification technology appears to be much safer than traditional passwords or the most recent two-factor verification.
The Army hopes that the Cognitive Fingerprints system can be developed and applied to encrypted data communications on its service networks as part of Defense programs Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
