Cybersecurity researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a new security system that can identify individual smartphone or tablet owners simply by how they touch and swipe the screen.
Called LatentGesture, it builds up a touch profile or signature of the user and then uses that information to constantly check if the person using a device is tapping and swiping it in the same way. If it detects differences, it can lock the user out of the device.
