Paper Abstract:
|
User authentication is a crucial security mechanism that plays an essential role in protecting systems and information. Numerous studies have examined users' experiences with various authentication methods. However, very few focused on granting users the freedom to select one or more authentication methods of their own choice. Limited research in this area suggested that the "Authentication of Choice" (AoC) approach can potentially serve as a usable and secure authentication solution on mobile devices. However, those studies only evaluated the AoC approach on the general population. No study examined the AoC approach as used by individuals in security-critical professions such as the military. To address this gap, we conducted an online longitudinal study with 12 military and 12 civilian participants to assess the AoC approach using a mobile app supporting healthy living. The result of the study provides insight into how users in special professions interact with and perceive the AoC approach in the context of mobile health apps. |
