So each user effectively gets assigned one of ~1000 ids, which is not that different to a three digit decimal PIN, that they then can use as password?

It seems to use it as an authentication scheme a username and 2FA/MFA is _mandatory_. I guess one could then also say: a username is a very strong and efficient authentication method.

I like the fact that you are playing with my words.

I didn't said that we have 1000 id's or that we are limited when creating the typing signatures. I said that we have a 99.9% detection accuracy score.

Each signature translates into a unique and encrypted hash with a length of over 300 characters. Compare that with an 8 characters unencrypted password, or with a 64 characters encrypted password and you'll be able to decide for yourself which security is better and more efficient.

Thanks for your interest in Typing AI.
