Keystroke DNA

Keystroke DNA is a behavioural biometric authentication service. It studies how a person types and builds a unique profile from the rhythm of their keystrokes. Each later sign-in attempt is compared with that profile, so only the genuine account owner is let in.

What Keystroke DNA offers

• Second-step authentication — typing rhythm checked in addition to a password.
• Fraud prevention — a way to spot someone using stolen login details.
• Retrospective identity analysis — looking back at past sessions to judge who was behind them.
• Simple integration — offered as a service that can be added to any web application with a few lines of code.

Who it works with

Owners of web applications that need stronger sign-in checks.
