Abstract: A method for indicating abnormal data-inputting behavior includes inducting and connecting an identification end with a control system. The control system receives a procedure selecting command to allow input of registration data or a log-in data. The control system generates identification information based on the registration data when the procedure selecting command is the input of registration data.

The control system compares the keystroke dynamic of the log-in data with the template of keystroke of the identification information. The control system sends out a warning message when the keystroke dynamic of the log-in data does not match the template of keystroke of the identification information.

The synthesizing step adds the corrected signal and the predetermined frequency band signal together to obtain an output signal.
