This is the worst news I've had for months. You see, this was MY idea. I had it for a few years. I was planning to do my masters on it. I have recently wrote a paper on it. See: here is the introduction
"The currently predominate system for user identification is obsolete, and has been broken in the past numerous times. It relies on a secret password that in theory only the user and the secure server know, which means that there are tons of ways to wrongfully obtain access to the system. Worse, users often forget the passwords; making them go through a usually painful password recovery procedure, and they often mishandle the password. The idea behind my proposal is to identify users based on their typing habits, therefore eliminating all these problems."
That company is now my enemy #1!!!
