A method implemented on a visual computing device to authenticate one or more users includes receiving a first three-dimensional pattern from a user. The first three-dimensional pattern is sent to a server computer. At a time of user authentication, a second three-dimensional pattern is received from the user. The second three-dimensional pattern is sent to the server computer. An indication is received from the server computer as to whether the first three-dimensional pattern matches the second three-dimensional pattern within a margin of error. When the first three-dimensional pattern matches the second three-dimensional pattern within the margin of error, the user is authenticated at the server computer. When the first three-dimensional pattern does not match the second three-dimensional pattern within the margin of error, user is prevented from being authenticated at the server computer.
