Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes identifying behavioral characteristics of a user related to operation of a computing device prior to an online account session. The method includes comparing the behavioral characteristics to a behavioral profile previously developed based on prior behavioral characteristics of the user, and determining an appropriate mark difficulty level based on a variation between the behavioral characteristics and the behavioral profile. The method includes selecting, from a plurality of prompts stored in a prompt database, a prompt that comprises instructions to draw a mark having the appropriate mark difficulty level, where other prompts of the plurality of prompts comprise instructions to draw other marks different from the mark, and providing the prompt to the user as part of a logon process for the online account session.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and apparatus for securing electronic personal identifying information. The system enhances data privacy, by minimizing the amount of authentic personal identifying information that is shared with a third party. Namely, the system includes a database of known websites, apps, etc. that require personal identifying information to sign up—and then classifies whether any given type of information is strictly necessary to the functioning of the website. The system then generates placeholder “dummy” data for any fields that are required for signup, but are not strictly necessary for the website to function. The system allows for creation of several user profiles that vary the amount of authentic personal identifying information to be shared, based on the user's preferences. The system therefore helps to secure personal information in the event that, for example, the website later has a data breach.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes selecting a prompt from a plurality of prompts stored in a prompt database, wherein the prompt comprises instructions to draw a mark, and wherein other prompts of the plurality of prompts comprise instructions to draw other marks different from the mark. The method also includes the steps of providing the prompt to a user as part of a logon process for an online account session, identifying behavioral characteristics of the user while the user draws the mark, comparing the behavioral characteristics to a behavioral profile previously developed based on prior behavioral characteristics of the user, and providing access to the online account session in response to determining that a variation between the behavioral characteristics and the behavioral profile is within a threshold.
