Abstract Text | The authentication field is evolving towards mechanisms able to keep users continuously authenticated without the necessity of remembering or possessing authentication credentials. While relevant limitations of continuous authentication systems -high false positives rates (FPR) and difficulty to detect behaviour changes- have been demonstrated in realistic single-device scenarios, the Internet of Things and next generation of mobile networks (5G) are enabling novel multi-device scenarios, such as Smart Offices, that can help to reduce or address the previous challenges. The paper at hand presents an AI-based, privacy-preserving and multi-device continuous authentication architecture called AuthCODE. AuthCODE seeks to improve single-device solutions limitations by considering additional behavioural data coming from heterogeneous devices. AuthCODE proposes a novel set of features that combine the interactions of users with different devices. The features relevance has been demonstrated in a realistic Smart Office scenario with several users that interact with their mobile devices and personal computers. In this context, a set of single- and multi-device datasets have been generated and published to compare the performance of our multi-device solution against single-device approaches. A pool of experiments with machine and deep learning classifiers measured the impact of time in authentication accuracy and improved the results of single-device approaches by considering multi-device behaviour profiles. Specifically, the multi-device approach using XGBoost with 1-minute window of aggregated features, achieved a 69.33%, 59,65% and 89,35% improvement in the FPR when compared to the single-device approach for computer, mobile applications and mobile sensors respectively. Finally, temporal information classified by a Long-Short Term Memory Network, allowed the identification of additional complex behaviour patterns. |
