Abstract

The traditional account and password verification method has not only been inconducive to user experience but also security threats. Although biometrics improves the user experience, biometric data can be stolen. FIDO is a rapid authentication mechanism however it does neither pass user biometrics through the server nor performs biometric identification on the user devices. This study develops a robust two factors authentication scheme with fine-grained biometrics verification for preserving privacy that seamlessly processes users’ authentication identities. Results of the simulation showed the proposed protocol had more properties in user authentication than the existing authentication schemes.
