Abstract
Computer implemented methods for enrolling a user as an authenticated user of a computing device and for authenticating a user of a computing device are provided. The methods make use of behavioral biometrics to determine a set of shares that represent a secret credential according to a secret sharing scheme. The set of shares is initially determined when the user is enrolled based on typical measurements of the user's behavioral biometrics and authentication data indicating how to generate the set of shares from a user's behavioral biometrics is generated. When authenticating the user, the computing device can generate the set of shares based on the authentication data and measurements of the current user's behavioral biometrics. The computing device can use the generated set of shares to recreate a copy of the secret credential with which to authenticate the user.
