EEG Authentication System Using Fuzzy Vault Scheme
Authentication is the process of recognizing a user’s identity by determining claimed user identity by checking user-provided evidence, combining cryptographic with biometric can solve many of security issues, including authentication. Our goal is to try to combine cryptography and biometrics to achieve authentication using fuzzy vault scheme. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals will be used as they are unique and also difficult to expose and copy; also they are difficult to be hack, using nine healthy persons’ EEGs from the BCI Competition and extracting power features from signals spectrum of beta and alpha band of EEG signal, the extracted features are from three channels (C3, Cz, and C4), then support vector Machine (SVM) is used for classification. In this chapter, two tasks (left hand and right hand) are used from a four tasks in the dataset, and the system achieves 96.98% validation accuracy, using 10-fold cross-validation on the training set and the model is saved, after extract features, these features will used to be evaluated on a polynomial generated from the secret key using reed Solomon code and chaff points generated using tent map are added to hide the data, which create the final result that is the vault, for decoding the system using Lagrange interpolation for polynomial reconstruction and returning the key.
