چکیده

Authentication is the process to provide guaranteed information security and the graphical password authentication method is a convenient and easy process to provide authentication. The major problem of user registration, mostly text base password, is well known. If the login user be inclined to select a simple password which is frequently in his mind it becomes straightforward for attackers to guess. If the password is machine generated it is mostly complicated for user to keep in mind. User authenticated password using cued click points graphical password scheme includes memorability, usability and security evaluations. This paper is on enhanced user graphical password authentication with an usability and memorability, so that users select more random or more difficult to guess passwords. In click-based graphical passwords, image or video frames provide database to load the image, and then give authenticated access to all information in database. Keywords— User authentication, graphical password scheme, cued recall, video frame as a password, usability, memorability, security.

In recent years, graphical passwords have been proposed as an alternative to traditional alphanumeric passwords, which demonstrate weakness in necessitating exact recall and thereby promoting the selection of insecure passwords. Because there is much evidence to suggest that humans have a greater capacity to recall images as compared to text, graphical passwords hold promise as a form of authen...

TwoStep: An Authentication Method Combining Text and Graphical Passwords

Text-based passwords alone are subject to dictionary attacks as users tend to choose weak passwords in favor of memorability, as well as phishing attacks. Many recognition-based graphical password schemes alone, in order to offer sufficient security, require a number of rounds of verification, introducing usability issues. We suggest a hybrid user authentication approach combining text password...

The interplay between humans, technology and user authentication: A cognitive processing perspective

This paper investigates the interplay among human cognitive processing differences (field dependence vs. field independence), alternative interaction device types (desktop vs. touch) and user authentication schemes (textual vs. graphical) towards task completion efficiency and effectiveness. A four-month user study (N 1⁄4 164) was performed under the light of the field dependence-independence t...

Poster: The MVP web-based framework for user studies in authentication

Despite the ubiquity of password systems, knowledge-based authentication remains an important and active research area. Many current systems have low security, and even then users often devise insecure coping strategies in order to compensate for memorability and usability problems. Alternative authentication systems, including various graphical password schemes, have received considerable atte...
