Abstract:
Systems and methods for increased security in authentication code entry for touch-sensitive screen enabled devices are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method for enhanced security in entering data to a data entry device comprising at least one computer processor and a touch-sensitive screen may include (1) the touch-sensitive screen displaying a touch instruction, the instruction indicating a touch location where a user touch is to be made on the touch-sensitive screen; (2) the touch-sensitive screen sensing a first touch; and (3) the at least one computer processor determining that the first touch is within a predetermined threshold of the touch location indicated by the touch instruction.
