Securing an alerting subsystem for a keystroke-based user identification system

Our keystroke-based user identification system represents a minimal implementation of a software system that can be used for continuous authentication of users, based on their keystroke dynamics. This paper brings into evidence the role of an alerting subsystem as a part of the software system mentioned above. Also, the paper presents a basic implementation of such a subsystem, based on the existing Syslog protocol, and a combined method for securing the protocol.
