A Novel Approach of Card Payment to avoid Overlooking & Shoulder Surfing Attacks
Abstract
To complete the transaction we need to provide 4 digit PIN number into that device. We suspect a security thread in this process. While providing PIN in front of friends, relative or unknown person, it is affected by “Shoulder attack”. Shoulder attacks is one of the latest weapons used by hackers or adversaries in an organization to hack an account or to authenticate in a secure zone. In a shoulder attack a person is watching the user while he is typing the password and reads his fingers that what he has typed or makes a video of him typing the password and so comes to know that what the password is. We wanted to address this problem. So to handle such type of attacks we wanted to developed such a technique which provides more security to a user in typing his password, in a public place, and in case that user is in critical position. As per our propose technique we wanted bank server should accept PIN from users mobile phone and not from merchants keypad.
