Who Are You? It Depends (On What You Ask Me!): Context-Dependent Dynamic User Authentication

Authors: 

Raghav V. Sampangi and Kirstie Hawkey, Dalhousie University

Abstract: 

In this position paper, we present a new mechanism for contextdependent user authentication. We propose an approach in which the type of authentication (single/two factor, two-step, etc.) and the choice of the authentication mechanisms (algorithms/protocols used) vary dynamically, depending on contextual information.
