Secure Authentication using Anti-Screenshot Virtual Keyboard


Ankit Parekh, Ajinkya Pawar, Pratik Munot and Piyush Mantri

With the development of electronic commerce, a lot of companies have established online trading platforms of their own such as e-tickets, online booking, online shopping, etc. Virtual Keyboard is used for authentication on such web based platform. However Virtual Keyboard still suffers from numerous other fallacies that an attacker can take advantage of. These include click based screenshot capturing and over the shoulder spoofing. To overcome these drawbacks, we have designed a virtual keyboard that is generated dynamically each time the user access the web site. Also after each click event of the user the arrangement of the keys of the virtual keyboard are shuffled. The position of the keys is hidden so that a user standing behind may not be able to see the pressed key. Our proposed approach makes the usage of virtual keyboard even more secure for users and makes it tougher for malware programs to capture authentication details.
