ABSTRACT

With the increase of smartphone users, smartphone users using the mobile banking services has increased significantly. For using the mobile banking services, users have to input their passwords in mobile banking App. According to recent studies, passwords inputted on a keypad could be inferred by using smartphone’s built-in motion sensors. In this paper, we propose a randomized keypad against password guessing attacks with motion sensors. When users try to input their passwords, the proposed keypad displays the area of random arrangement on which users can input their passwords. Accordingly, the location information of touched keys is different whenever users input their passwords. Users can safely use the mobile banking service because it is impossible to infer the inputted passwords with motion sensors.
