Abstract
An information handling system includes a memory and a detector circuit. The memory is configured to store a first electrocardiogram measurement. The detector circuit is configured to receive a second electrocardiogram measurement in response to a specific combination of keys of a keyboard being pressed for a specific period of time, wherein each key in the specific key combination includes an electrocardiogram sensor on a top surface of the key, to authorize a user and log the user onto the information handling system when the second electrocardiogram measurement matches the first electrocardiogram measurement, and otherwise: to deny access to the information handling system; to increase a counter; to determine whether the counter has exceeded a threshold; and to request that an input window is displayed when the counter has exceeded the threshold.
