Abstract

A gesture-based method is disclosed for authenticating a user. More specifically, the user of an information handling system is prompted to enter a passcode finger tap sequence input gesture via a touch-sensitive device. The finger tap sequence input gesture is processed to generate a passcode finger tap sequence. The passcode finger tap sequence is then compared to a previously-generated authentication finger tap sequence. If the two finger tap sequences match, then the user is authenticated.
