Abstract

The paper describes a way to give the end users an authentication which is easy to remember yet meet the complexity criteria that is must for any authentication. In a general scenario, it is not easy to remember an alphanumeric password of 15 characters. But, with this in hand you can easily remember a password of complexities up to 100 characters or even more and will not forget that. Think the ease it provides on your memory, and yet meet all the complexity standards. The randomization of password at every authentication screen makes sure that you are never sniffed out in a session. The password works with a graphical authentication and has infinite possibilities of choosing it. The canvas provides ‘easy to remember’ confidence, and as decoded in the background the actual long alpha-numeric string provides you the complexity you need for your password.
