Brightness Based Password Authentication to Avoid Shoulder Surfing in Banking Applications

Abstract

This project deals with problems on providing security Bright Pass is a user authentication scheme for secure ATM application. Shoulder surfing refers to eavesdropping one’s personal information like PIN or passwords by observing it from a considerable distance. we address this issue by introducing Bright Pass, a novel authentication mechanism based on screen brightness. Bright Pass allows users to authenticate safely with a PIN-based confirmation in the presence of specific operations on sensitive data. In this approach user can enter their PIN regarding the brightness value displayed to the user.
