Abstract
The security of modern smartphones is related to the combination of Continuous Authentication approaches, Touch events, and Human Activities. The approaches of Continuous Authentication, Touch Events, and Human Activities are silent to the user but are a great source of data for Machine Learning Algorithms. This work aims to develop a method for continuous authentication while the user is sitting and scrolling documents on the smartphone. Touch Events and Smartphone Sensor Features (from the well-known H-MOG Dataset) were used with the addition, for each sensor, of the feature called Signal Vector Magnitude. Several Machine Learning Models have been considered with different experiment setups, 1-class, and 2-class, for evaluation. The results show that the 1-class SVM achieves an accuracy of 98.9% and an F1-score of 99.4%, considering the selected features and the feature Signal Vector Magnitude very significant.
