+# CountNPass
+
+*This Android Studio project was part of the MSc dissertation of Ioannis Stroumpoulis at the University of Glasgow*
+
+**Count ‘N’ Pass**: A novel authentication system for smartphones that uses a form of PIN mechanism with a secret key encryption, based on eyes-free 
+interaction. Users enter and obfuscate their credentials through a vibrotactile interface that includes a blank screen with no visual feedback,
+achieving resistance to shoulder surfing attacks.
+
+Two experiments were conducted:
+1. A usability experiment showing that a novice user could authenticate with 89% success rate. 
+2. A security experiment proving the system’s resistance to observation attacks even in clear screen view.
+
+The current form of the project refers to the **usability experiment**
+
+## Build
+Clone project via Android Studio
+
+## Installation
+You can run the system on your android device by downloading the release version or by building the project and creating the apk through Android Studio.
+
+## How to use
+You can find [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GyE3ifnrIAvMxPNkM9AW6tLk4dkZaz-J/view?usp=sharing) the Information Sheet that was given to the participants of the usability experiment.
