arXiv:2609.01856v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: There is growing interest in the proposed use of EEG signals as biometric credentials, but thus far there has been little research on the reliability and security of such biometrics. Prior adversarial tests have focused on deep-learning classifiers and assumed attackers have full access to the classifier model. This has left unexamined other, more popular categories of neural signature methods as well as the more realistic case of an adversary hav
Editorial Analysis
As biometric authentication diversifies, understanding adversarial resilience of novel modalities like EEG prevents premature adoption of insecure identity factors.
Defer EEG biometric pilots until adversarial robustness benchmarks mature; track this research stream for future identity roadmap planning.
