“…Although biometric systems provide the highest level of security, they mostly have usability issues such as being slow and sometimes unreliable as human physiology may change due to old age or ill health. Other problems with biometric systems include ‗spoof attacks' [16] and ‗template database leakage' [17]. They also mostly require the attachment of additional components to traditional computing systems and handheld devices, which are often very expensive.…”

Alphanumeric text and PINs continue to be the dominant authentication methods in spite of the numerous concerns by security researchers of their inability to properly address usability and security flaws and to effectively combine usability and security. These flaws have, however, contributed to the growing research interest in the development and use of graphical authentication systems as alternatives to text based systems. Graphical passwords or graphical authentication systems are password systems that use images rather than characters or numbers in user authentication. In spite of the growing acceptance of graphical passwords, empirical studies have shown that graphical authentication systems have also inherited some of the flaws of text-based passwords. These flaws include predictability, vulnerability to observational attacks and the inability of systems to efficiently combine security with usability. Hence, there is a continued quest to find a "system" that has both strong usability and strong security. This paper is a detailed review of the current state of research into graphical authentication systems. The paper considers in detail some of the mechanisms used in graphical authentication, along with the flaws and strengths of each. The paper also concludes with some suggested ways forward.

Cloud computing needs a strong and efficient authentication system because the user will access his rented part through a faraway connection and it will make the authentication sensor device besides the user place for identification and verification so how to know the user who claimed himself to be the legal user. Keystroke identification system as a biometric authentication technique is strongly Candidate for the security issues in cloud computing technology. Keystroke dynamics as a security system did not need extra hardware because the authentication device will be the existing keyboard based on everyone has a unique style for writing. The other biometric methods are addressed with each advantage and disadvantage along with keystroke method. In this paper, all known studies about keystroke technique are explained and compared between them according to the classification technique, number of the participated users and each study results then introduces a survey on software and hardware of other biometric authentication techniques and after the literature review is addressed then keystroke as a biometric authentication system is suggested to access cloud computing environment because it has many advantages to being a part of the known security systems which spread in our world.

World is going toward digitalization and cloud computing plays an important role to connect digital devices for communication with each other. Communication with authentic device and secure its illegal access is the main feature of cloud providers. With the growth of cloud technologies attackers are also finding different attack vectors to break down the cloud authentication system. Previous research illustrates that there is need to develop strong authentication technique to strengthen the trust on cloud systems. This paper demonstrated a visual cryptographic authentication technique for cloud environment. The technique is based on the SVD factorization method. SVD works effectively to create multiple shares of an image and make strong authentication algorithm on the basis of random image feature selection. Result analysis shows that SVD factorization works effectively rather than LU factorization in cloud environment.
