Abstract: Cloud computing has gained increased interest in the last few years, where an increasing number of providers are converging to such a promising platform. However, the security issues are still a big concern in the cloud, where authentication is a major one. Much research has been conducted to secure the authentication, where some of them used biometric features (fingerprint, face, and voice, etc.). In general, the biometric authentication techniques have a noticeable advantage compared to the traditional techniques because biometric features are hard to be altered or forged. Nevertheless, a new generation of attacks threatens the biometric security by using brute force approaches. This article proposes a nontraditional authentication technique that was called Bio-CAPTCHA. The proposed technique uses a random voice-based password challenge that dynamically changes every time the user tries to login, which promises to significantly decrease the possibility of unauthorized access. The conducted Experimental and theoretical analysis confirms the high-security level of the proposed technique.
