Definition
Security technique that identifies users by how they interact with devices and applications — typing cadence, touch gestures, mouse dynamics, device handling — rather than static credentials or one-time biometrics alone.
Key Points
- Used upstream of payment authorization to flag account-takeover-fraud, coercion and bot/AI-assisted sessions
- biocatch combines behavioral signals with device/application/network intelligence (multi-signal-fraud-intelligence)
- Complements passkeys and transaction-level fraud models on payment networks such as visa
Info
Privacy trade-off: continuous session telemetry raises consent and surveillance questions; report neutrally.
