Abstract

A system and method for determining and authenticating a person's identity by generating a behavioral profile for that person by presenting that person with various stimulus and measuring that person's response characteristics in an enrollment stage. That person's response profile, once generated is stored. When that user subsequently needs to access a secure resource, that user to be authorized is presented with the stimulus that was presented at the time of generating that person's behavioral profile and the person's responses are detected and compared to his/her behavioral profile. If a match is detected, that user is identified. The user's behavioral response may be in the form of signals as detected by sensor means that detects visual or audible emotional cues or as signals resulting from that person's behavior as detected by polygraph or EEG devices.
