This Android Studio project was part of the MSc dissertation of Ioannis Stroumpoulis at the University of Glasgow

Count ‘N’ Pass: A novel authentication system for smartphones that uses a form of PIN mechanism with a secret key encryption, based on eyes-free interaction. Users enter and obfuscate their credentials through a vibrotactile interface that includes a blank screen with no visual feedback, achieving resistance to shoulder surfing attacks.

Two experiments were conducted:

  1. A usability experiment
  2. A security experiment

The current form of the project refers to the usability experiment

Build

Clone project via Android Studio

Installation

You can run the system on your android device by downloading the release version or by building the project and creating the apk through Android Studio.
