Rise in adoption of multimodal biometrics

The growing number of advanced cyber-attacks have raised the security concerns offered by traditional biometric systems. The critical data handled by different end users such as BFSI, government, and defense need advanced multimodal biometrics, which can increase the accuracy and reliability to overcome the drawbacks of a single biometric system. To satisfy the security demand, these multimodal biometric systems can capture and authenticate their users on different parameters. In addition, there are several reasons to combine different modalities. One of these includes improvement of the recognition effectiveness. Moreover, growth in trend of multimodal biometric systems is customer preference that needs higher level of security. Furthermore, multimodal biometric system also deals with a variety of issues such as intra-class variations, limited degrees of freedom, non-universality, noisy data, spoof attacks, and unacceptable error rates caused by unimodal biometric systems. Keystroke dynamics is considered as one of the ideal options for multimodal biometrics for authentication and authorization. Therefore, it is widely adopted among different end user organizations and thus drives the growth of the market.

Performance and interoperability issues

Though keystroke dynamics has been one of the advanced evolving technologies in biometrics industry, interoperability issues are associated with these solutions. In addition, high error rates have been recorded in several cases which affects its performance and hinders its adoption. Moreover, the technology lacks in terms of authentication accuracy as variations in typing rhythm can be caused by external factors such as injury, fatigue, or distraction of a user which may affect the authentication process. Furthermore, small commercial widespread of technology also impacts global keystroke dynamics market growth.

Emerging applications of keystroke dynamics in the developing smartphones market

Developing economies have been constantly moving toward technology adoption, supported by government initiatives, and rise in expenditure. According to a study, there has been a significant adoption of smartphones over the past years in the developing economies. Several developing countries have reported very high penetration of smartphones, which is a major indicator of their progress. For instance, smartphone ownership is extremely high in South Korea, say about 94% and Israel with 83%. In addition, about one-third of the world’s population across developing nations own a smartphone. The development in smartphones market and growth in number of different applications make way for several cyber-attacks. Several traditional methods for authentication include smartcards or face recognition. This can be changed owing to hardware and environment limitations such as dark environments or camera restricted places. For such applications, a combination of keystroke dynamics and any other form of authentication technology can be used for authentication purposes. In addition, constant growth in different biometrics technology in smartphones has created a scope for keystroke dynamics, which is expected to be the global keystroke dynamics market opportunity.
