Claim One:
1. A method for securely authenticating an identity of an individual using a communications device based on a pattern that is traced by the individual, comprising: identifying a defined pattern by a user interface of the communications device to the individual for the individual to currently trace; receiving a currently traced pattern generated from continuously tracing the defined pattern by the individual from an initial point on the defined pattern to an end point on the defined pattern via the user interface of the communications device; capturing motion-based behavior data generated by the individual currently tracing the defined pattern from the individual continuously tracing the defined pattern from the initial point to the end point; accumulating previously captured motion-based behavior data captured from each previously traced pattern previously traced by the individual; and comparing the motion-based behavior data captured from the current trace of the defined pattern with the previously captured motion-based behavior data accumulated from each previous trace of the defined pattern to determine whether the motion-based behavior data is within a threshold of the previously captured motion-based behavior data.
