A Method to Improve the Security of Screen Lock for Android Mobile Phones

Abstract:

Mobile phones become popular, and Android is the most popular open source mobile platform. To protect the mobile users security and privacy, it is necessary for us to adopt certain secure screen lock mechanism. Regrettably, existing screen lock mechanism failed to provide more stronger security. In this paper, we present a method to strength the screen locks security. Our evaluation shows that our screen lock is stronger than the existing mechanism.
