I will vouch for the method explained in the article.

When I was in high school, a fellow geek (loyal friend and #1 competitor) read about this in a magazine. The idea intrigued him, so he put it to the test. He wrote a program in BASIC, on a TRS-80, that took ten samples of a person typing his/her own name, monitoring the keystroke patterns carefully.

Once he got the fudge-factor properly adjusted, it worked very well. I tried to type his name, as similarly to his typing as I could, but the program always rejected my typing as being from an impostor. Likewise with him, trying to type my name. Our programming instructor was very impressed.
