Abstract
A method for gaining access beyond a restricted access gateway includes an access key sequence stored on memory of a device. The access key sequence includes a sequence of key entries and key touch movements. An entered request sequence including keys activated by touch on a keyboard of the device and directions of touch movements made on the keyboard is recorded. With an access controller, it is determined whether the recorded entered request sequence matches the access key sequence. Access beyond the restricted access gateway is granted to functions when the recorded entered request sequence matches the access key sequence.
