Double Door Authentication for Mobile Devices using Personalised Lock (pins)

Abstract

As the usage of mobile devices has been enormously increased, the role of authentication became very prominent. Usually explicit authentication techniques such as passwords are employed. However the devices would be infracted if the passwords are stolen without the user's knowledge. Therefore, there is an adverse search for finding out the ways for improvising the authentication techniques for mobile platforms and services. Double door authentication for mobile devices is the method that provides privacy with enhanced security feature. This paper explores the main objective of providing an authentication facility that supports the users to manage all the confidential information with the feature of personalized locking(2 pins, hand-in-hand simultaneously).In a realistic manner, the personalized locking feature can exclude the devices from third-party security installations and interferences such as sure-lock, vault-hide etc. Here the primary and secondary users are considered to be the key players. Especially, the primary user has an extensive role of sensitive applications selection and restricted access implementation.
