Secure typing via BCI system with encrypted feedback

Information transmission security is an important issue in many scenarios such as password input. Traditional approaches such as typing or voice input are prone to peep, leading to a risk of information leakage. Brain computer interface (BCI) can read information directly from the brain, which is confidential inherently, thus it may be an ideal way for secure information input. This paper proposes a novel BCI-based secure input approach with encrypted feedback. The encrypted feedback is specially designed to notify users and confuse peepers at the same time. We give the theoretical guarantee of accuracy and evaluate the system with both simulation and experiments. The results show that our method can transmit messages effectively.
