1. A computer implemented security credential authentication method comprising:
responsive to receiving, by a mobile computing device, a request for authentication, generating, by the mobile computing device, a user interface comprising a prompt for a user to provide a first freeform input,
receiving the first freeform input comprising a user entered freeform gesture and overlaying the first freeform input over a first image;
determining that the first freeform input matches a second freeform input of the user based on data representing the second freeform input, the data representing the second freeform input being previously stored in a data store, and the second freeform input comprising a second freeform gesture over a second image; and
responsive to a determination that the first freeform input matches the second freeform input, authenticating the user to access information associated with a user account.
