Security in smartphones has become one of the major concerns, with prolific growth in its usage scenario. Many applications are available for Android users to protect their applications and data. But all these security applications are not easily accessible for persons with disabilities. For persons with color blindness, authentication mechanisms pose user interface related issues. Color blind users find the inaccessible and complex design in the interface difficult to access and interpret mobile locks. This paper focuses on a novel method for providing color and touch sensitivity based dot pattern lock. This Model automatically replaces the existing display style of a pattern lock with a new user preferred color combination. In addition Pressure Gradient Input (PGI) has been incorporated to enhance authentication strength. The feedback collected from users shows that this accessible security application is easy to use without any major access barrier.
