College Studemt Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A wonderful technology " August 30, 2022 4.0 Pros How easy it was to install, set-up and use for my software projects. Cons I wish that the product had more documentation and notifications to help users understand what is happening behind the curtain. Reason for choosing TypingDNA ActiveLock It was recommended through my favorite coding YouTube channel. Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Look at the log files (see file location in our user guide) to learn more about typing pattern characteristics (e.g., speed), training strength, authentication score, authentication result, and other details.

Business unit manager and SE Wholesale Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Unusual approach to common problem" August 17, 2022 5.0 We will try to implement company health check, but as a user that has software installed, i am satisfied. I even forget it even exists, but if someone tries to use my laptop, all of us gets reminded not to do that, as its company computer, not a personal/shareable one :) Pros Its zero touch, i don't see it, o don't feel it, unless i try to type with one hand, then it just locks my screen and says someone was using my computer :) Cons some quality of life improvements was needed, but they included that in next update. Maybe some insights/dashboard for user could be nice Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Thank you, Dainius, for using our continuous endpoint authentication solution. The app produces local logs (check user guide for specific file location) where you find information about matching scores and other activities. Our commercial version easily aggregates those logs and can display a dashboard using desired SIEM such as DataDog, Grafana, and others.

I downloaded activelock which is able to constantly check if the correct person is using the device my verifying the typing biometrics is correct and locks the device if its not Cons activelocks training period is too long for infrequent use, i installed it on my machine and its still 48% trained after at least a week Review Source Alex B. SDR Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Really great tool to keep other hands from touching your stuff" January 16, 2023 5.0 really good experience. have nothing to complain about. Pros The fact that it has an algorithm for the way you type. Cons I don't have anything to dislike. Everything about this tool is cool. Review Source SC Stefan C. Freelancer Financial Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Excellent product" July 19, 2022 5.0 Pros I use ActiveLock for a few weeks already and worked flawlessly. It was very intuitive and easy to install. Actually, after the training was completed, I set the highest security level and it worked perfectly. I was curious to see if it will lock the computer when I was using it, but it didn't lock not even once. So, it worked excellent. Cons I can't think of any specific aspect. Maybe the training was longer than expected, but in the end this could be a good thing, too. Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Glad to hear that you enjoy it! The initial training time is roughly 2000 words, about 1 to 2 days of average user typing. This happens passively while you do your work, so you don't have to open our app to type something actively.

February 11, 2023 5.0 I may ( occasionally ) leave my lap top alone Pros Very easy to download and install.Easy to set it up.Initially one does not believe that will work properly but IT DOES ! Silently ...... Cons Until I have asked someone to type in my computer , I could not realize if it was really working......A kind of initial proof could be interesting to assure the user that the app IS working. Review Source BB Brian B. Director of IT Government Administration Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Trial of Typing DNA" August 3, 2022 5.0 It was easy to setup and works as it's supposed to. It blocks unknown users and secures my computer Pros Typing DNA was easy to install and learns how the user types. I tested this by completing the training portion and then had another user type a memo. Within six words, it had locked the computer keeping the unknown user (unknown to TypingDNA) from doing anything else on the computer. Cons At this point, I can find no reason for not liking the app. Reason for choosing TypingDNA ActiveLock We're still in the trial phase at this time. Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Thank you for your kind words! We are continuously updating ActiveLock with a fantastic experience. Keep an eye on our updates.

Wish there was a Linux app" September 25, 2022 4.0 Pros The software delivers on what it promised. It's effective in detecting intruders Cons No Linux app. Since a large portion of our endpoints are Linux based, this is a major concern Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Yes, we currently only support securing Windows and Mac endpoints. Your feedback was noted, and I will follow-up with you when the Linux app is ready. BB Bogdan B.

Pros It runs really smooth. From time to time I remember that the application is active and that it does its job discreetly and this gives me a feeling of security. Cons I think that a report on what happened in the last 30 days would be useful Review Source Response from TypingDNA September 27, 2022 Well said! - "the application makes working at the office as safe as working at home."
