Abstract
The rapid growth of smartphone financial services raises the need for secure mobile authentication. Continuous authentication is a user-friendly way to strengthen the security of smartphones by implicitly monitoring a user’s identity through sessions. Mobile continuous authentication can be viewed as an anomaly detection problem in which models discriminate between one genuine user and the rest of the impostors (anomalies). In practice, complete impostor profiles are hardly available due to the time and monetary cost, while leveraging genuine data alone yields poorly generalized models due to the lack of knowledge about impostors. To address this challenge, we recast continuous mobile authentication as a few-shot anomaly detection problem, aiming to enhance the inference robustness of unseen impostors by using partial knowledge of available impostor profiles. Specifically, we propose a novel deep learning-based model, namely a local feature pooling-based temporal convolution network (LFP-TCN), which directly models raw sequential mobile data, aggregating global and local feature information. In addition, we introduce a random pattern mixing augmentation to generate class-unconstrained impostor data for the training. The augmented pool enables characterizing various impostor patterns from limited impostor data. Finally, we demonstrate practical continuous authentication using score-level fusion, which prevents long-term dependency or increased model complexity due to extended re-authentication time. Experiments on two public benchmark datasets show the effectiveness of our method and its state-of-the-art performance.
