Summary:Devices, systems, and methods of detecting user identity, differentiating between users of a computerized service, and detecting possible attackers; as well as password-less user authentication, and password-less detection of user identity. A system or a computing device requires a user to perform a particular unique non-user-defined task, the task optionally being an on-screen connect-the-dots task. The system monitors user interactions, extracts user-specific features that characterizes the manner in which the user performs the tasks; and subsequently relies on such user-specific features as a means for user authentication, optionally without utilizing a password or passphrase. Optionally, a user interface anomaly or interference is intentionally introduced in order to elicit the user to perform corrective gestures, which are optionally used for extraction of additional user-specific features.
