Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods of detecting user identity, differentiating between users of a computerized service, and detecting a possible attacker. A log-in process or a user-authentication process, is augmented or enriched by one or more incidental tasks, which force the user to perform additional on-screen interactions or input-unit interactions, which in turn enrich and augment the pool of user interactions from which the system extracts one or more user-specific features. The extracted user-specific features are used as part of the user authentication process, and are further used to differentiate among users.
