Abstract

As new technologies emerge such as wearables, it opens up for new challenges, especially related to security and privacy. One such recent technology is smart glasses. The use of glasses introduces security and privacy concerns for the general public but also for the user itself. In this paper we present work which focus on privacy of the user during authentication. We propose and analyze two methods, visual cryptography and obfuscation for protecting the user against HUD and camera logging adversaries as well as shoulder-surfing.
