Abstract

In this chapter, the authors discuss the application of iconic passwords in authentication solutions aimed at the use of smartphones as payment devices. They seek a trade-off between security and usability by means of memorization strategies based on human memory skills. The authors present a first approach to the authentication solution, which was tested with users and compared with a previous scheme that lacked the strategies. The advantages and limitations of the proposed solution, along with future research directions, are then discussed.
