About this report

Shows validation accuracy distribution per Partner/Account/Device.

This report monitors whether users are having difficulty in accuracy when using different devices to log in.  Compare this report to previous sessions or terms to determining if there is a spike in difficulty with a particular device.  To improve usage of a certain device we can provide suggestions on how to use certain devices.  For example, if you see a number of users struggling with a mouse we may need to inform them to keep the mouse button held down throughout the entire stroke so that additional lines are not created. If a user lets up on the mouse button during a stroke the system sees an additional line even though this may not be visible to a user causing a validation to fail.

The standard threshold of validation accuracy is 40%, which is configurable per client.  For more security, the threshold rate may be increased.  This report will help you to determine a level of validation accuracy without impacting usability.
