Abstract
Methods and systems are described herein for an authentication mechanism that uses cryptographic tokens and eye-tracking data. In particular, the disclosed mechanism may receive an authentication request that includes an identifier of a cryptographic token and retrieve eye-tracking data and an image associated with the cryptographic token. The eye-tracking data may store various coordinates within the image and may be encoded for use in authentication. The disclosed mechanism may then transmit the image to a computing device (e.g., associated with a user) that is able to perform gaze detection as part of an authentication operation. In response, the disclosed mechanism may receive user gaze data collected during the authentication operation and determine whether the eye-tracking data matches the user gaze data. Based on determining that the eye-tracking data matches the user gaze data, the disclosed mechanism may transmit to the computing device an indication of successful authentication.
