Abstract
The increased frequency and damage caused by virtual attacks, reveals a need for stronger, easily deployable authentication solutions. This paper describes the architecture of a biometric authentication system based on dynamic handwritten signatures. Our design uses the principles of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and consists of non-intrusive, easy-to-integrate services and software components. Its features are enhanced security, reduced development time for the applications that use it, and modularity with respect to the underlying biometric system. Our experiments demonstrate that the system is a cost-efficient solution capable of handling thousands of authentication requests per minute.
