A study of EEG for enterprise multimedia security

In this era of technological advancement the security of one’s own identity to access multimedia content have become a major concern for big enterprises. The traditional security mechanisms like PIN numbers, ID cards, passwords, etc., can be easily divulged by the intruders. User identification using these traditional approaches is prone to various security threats. Thus, a robust security system is required to deal with the security issues for user identification and verification before providing access to the multimedia. Recently, the use of Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals as a biometric trait has opened novel ways for the development of various Brain-Computer-Interface (BCI) based applications. Due to the inherent nature of uniqueness in every individual, EEG signals are considered as a robust alternate for biometric systems. In this paper, we perform a detailed review of EEG based security techniques to investigate its robustness in securing enterprise related multimedia contents.
