Abstract
A method includes obtaining a gaze feature of a user of a device, wherein the device has already been unlocked using a second feature, the gaze feature being based on images of a pupil relative to a display screen of the device, comparing the obtained gaze feature to known gaze features of an authorized user of the device, and determining whether or not the user is authorized to use the device based on the comparison.
