• Title: An Anti-disguise Authentication System Using the First Impression of Avatar in Metaverse
• Authors: Zhenyong Zhang, Kedi Yang, Youliang Tian, Jianfeng Ma,
• Abstract summary: We propose an anti-disguise authentication method that draws on the idea of the first impression from the physical world to recognize an old friend. Specifically, the first meeting scenario in the metaverse is stored and recalled to help the authentication between avatars. The proposed signcryption mechanism meets not only the security requirement but also the public verifiability.

• Abstract: Metaverse is a vast virtual world parallel to the physical world, where the user acts as an avatar to enjoy various services that break through the temporal and spatial limitations of the physical world. Metaverse allows users to create arbitrary digital appearances as their own avatars by which an adversary may disguise his/her avatar to fraud others. In this paper, we propose an anti-disguise authentication method that draws on the idea of the first impression from the physical world to recognize an old friend. Specifically, the first meeting scenario in the metaverse is stored and recalled to help the authentication between avatars. To prevent the adversary from replacing and forging the first impression, we construct a chameleon-based signcryption mechanism and design a ciphertext authentication protocol to ensure the public verifiability of encrypted identities. The security analysis shows that the proposed signcryption mechanism meets not only the security requirement but also the public verifiability. Besides, the ciphertext authentication protocol has the capability of defending against the replacing and forging attacks on the first impression. Extensive experiments show that the proposed avatar authentication system is able to achieve anti-disguise authentication at a low storage consumption on the blockchain.

  An attacker can steal a user's avatar, preserving his appearance and voice, making it nearly impossible to detect its usage by sight or sound alone.<n>Our main question is whether an individual's facial motion patterns can serve as reliable behavioral biometrics to verify their identity when the avatar's visual appearance is a facsimile of its owner.<n> Experimental results demonstrate that facial motion landmarks enable meaningful identity verification with AUC values approaching 80%.
