Sharing Facebook Password Employers and schools nowadays evaluate applicants from their social media accounts. For example, the applicant’s Facebook profile could be used to get information such as age, residence and even academic history. What worries Joanna Stern in the article, “Demanding Facebook Passwords May Break Law, Say Senators” is the fact that employers and schools require employees and students to give their Facebook passwords to access their profiles. This practice poses unanticipated

Current authentication systems suffer from many weaknesses. Textual passwords are commonly used. Users tend to choose meaningful words from dictionaries, which make textual passwords easy to break and vulnerable to dictionary or brute force attacks. Many available graphical passwords have a password space that is less than or equal to the textual password space.Smart cards or tokens can be stolen. Many biometric authentications have been proposed.However, users tend to resist using biometrics because

comes to password security. For so long we have relied on passwords to be our walls of defense for our digital security. We have set passwords for our computer log in, when internet banking began to boom we created passwords for our banks, for our online shopping we began to create accounts with passwords. As time as password we have reached a point in 2017 the average business employee has 191 passwords stored on their computer according to researchers at Lastpass (1). As the number of passwords that

3D PASSWORD Abstract—We have to think that how much our password and other authentication schemes are powerful to protect our data and documents from hackers .it is very easy for hackers to hack our data. .There is different authentication scheme to provide security to our data like TEXTUAL PASSWORD ,GRAPHICAL PASSWORD , BIOMETRICS. But current authentication scheme are suffering from many weaknesses. 3D Password authentication scheme is combination of RECOGINATION , RECALL , TOKENS , BIOMETRICS

Introduction Passwords for access to personal phones, computers, online portals, and websites has become very prevalent and the best practice for authentication. Additionally, passwords authenticate mobile phones, computer networks and databases for many software applications. However, ensuring that passwords are encrypted, and safe have become one of the greatest challenges for most organizations. This paper will review some of the vulnerabilities of the use of passwords and provide controls

verifying the identity of a particular person. The most popular authentication method is password authentication. In this, textual(alphanumeric) passwords are mostly used as traditional method. These types of textual passwords are strings of letters and digits. But there are several deficiencies in these textual passwords such as passwords used are short and simple which are easy to remember[2].So textual passwords can be personal names of family members, dictionary words, birth-date, pet name, phone

The Five Best Free Password Management Tools When it comes to securing your online activities, a password is one of the best tools you have. The creation of a strong password is one of the first tips security experts give to organisations – but how will you keep track of the different password? Cloud-based solutions have become popular and organisations are taking their documents online. But when you subscribe to a virtual data room such as Drooms, you must ensure the password you choose to use

Create a password-change policy for a networking group The password policy is set in the Default Domain Policy, and the password is set to expire every 180 days, but it can be change to 30 days and never. You can run a command called “Gpresult /v” at the command prompt line to see which systems are set to the 180 day password reset. Before the password expires you will be prompt about a week before it expire, letting you know that it will expire in so many days, and it will ask you to change it

short, simple, and insecure passwords that are susceptible to attack. Which make textual passwords easy to break and vulnerable to dictionary or brute force attacks. Graphical passwords schemes have been proposed. The strength of graphical passwords comes from the fact that users can recall and recognize pictures more than words. Most graphical passwords are vulnerable for shoulder surfing attacks, where an attacker can observe or record the legitimate user’s graphical password by camera. Token based

Since conventional password schemes are vulnerable to shoulder surfing, many shoulder surfing resistant graphical password schemes have been proposed. However, as most users are more familiar with textual passwords than pure graphical passwords, text-based graphical password schemes have been proposed. Unfortunately, none of existing text-based shoulder surfing resistant graphical password schemes is both secure and efficient enough. Here, we propose 4-D Password scheme to make the existing scheme
