A Mustang Security User Authentication Scheme Based On Graphical Password
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Computer and Communication Technology - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
In all computer security contexts, User authentication is an essential thing. The most popular and simple type of user authentication method is to use the alphanumeric passwords. The reasons behind why we are using alphanumeric passwords are the simplicity in the case of use and implementation. Inorder to avoid the drawbacks has been shown by these type of passwords, graphical passwords can be used for the user authentication by the fact that, a person can memorize images more than characters. And Graphical passwords are difficult to break using the common attack methods such as brute force attacks, dictionary attacks and social engineering attacks. Still graphical passwords are not yet widely used more than alphanumeric passwords. So, the chances of vulnerabilities are not fully understood. In this paper, I propose a novel graphical method to tighten password security and to overcome one of the main drawbacks of existing graphical password authentication schemes which is secure, robust and efficient.
