Password Protection

Biopassword protection for Oyco consists of a multi-layer authentication system that processes not only the information entered during the log-in but also the unique typing style of each user as well.

The service does not require any change in user behaviour or the use of expensive, intrusive equipment. The Biopassword system simply relies on the biometric science of keystroke dynamics to record each user's keypad rhythm from their very firstlogin, using subsequent log-ins to create a flexible template that allows only the actual user to access the account. Hence there is no need to worry about passwords being stolen and used by identity thieves or hackers.

The biometric authentication software learns and adapts to the user's changing rhythm, updating log-in information to always make sure that each user can log in without being conscious of the natural changes in their typing style.
