Abstract
Systems () and methods () securely authenticate an identity of an individual based on a pattern () that is traced by the individual. Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to prompting () an individual with a pattern () to trace when attempting to authenticate the identity of the individual during an identity authentication session. Motion-based behavior data that is generated by motions executed by the individual as the individual traces the pattern () is captured () via a motion-capturing sensor (). The motion-based behavior data is unique to the individual and has a low likelihood of being duplicated by an unauthorized individual attempting to fraudulently pose as the individual. The captured motion-based behavior data is compared () to previously captured motion-based behavior data from previous traces () of the pattern () completed by the individual. The identity of the individual is authenticated () when the motion-based behavior data is within a threshold of the previously captured motion-based behavior data.
