Can This Keyboard Find the Hackers?

The researchers developed a smart keyboard that can sense typing patterns  including the pressure applied to keys and speed that can accurately distinguish one individual user from another. So even if anyone knows your password, they cannot access your computer because that person types in a different way than you would. It also can harness the energy generated from typing to either power itself or another small device. And the special surface coating repels dirt and grime. The scientists says that the keyboard could provide an additional layer of protection to boost the security of our computer systems.

“Passwords based on simple patterns on your keyboard remain popular despite how weak they are,”
“Any password using numbers alone should be avoided, especially sequences. As more websites require stronger passwords or combinations of letters and numbers, longer keyboard patterns are becoming common passwords, and they are still not secure” says Morgan Slain, CEO of SplashData
“The bad news from my research is that this year’s most commonly used passwords are pretty consistent with prior years,” said by a security expert Mark Burnett
