Leveraging Real-Life Facts to Make Random Passwords More Memorable
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
User-chosen passwords fail to provide adequate security. Systemassigned random passwords are more secure but suffer from memorability problems. ...
In particular, we examine the efficacy of augmenting a system-assigned password scheme based on textual recognition by providing users with verbal cues-real-life facts corresponding to the assigned keywords ...
The TextV scheme offers verbal cues (i.e., real-life facts related to the keyword), where cues are shown both at registration and login. ...

Towards Making Random Passwords Memorable: Leveraging Users' Cognitive Ability Through Multiple Cues
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
To address this usability-security tension, we argue that systems should assign random passwords but also help with memorization and recall. ...
System-assigned passwords provide measurable security but suffer from poor memorability. ...
We are thankful to the anonymous reviewers for their thoughtful suggestions in improving the paper. ...

A Password Manager that Doesn't Remember Passwords
2014
Proceedings of the 2014 workshop on New Security Paradigms Workshop - NSPW '14
Instead of remembering passwords, Versipass remembers image cues for graphical passwords. These cues help users to better remember their passwords and to more easily link passwords with accounts. ...
We have developed Versipass, a password manager that incorporates key elements of password managers and cued graphical passwords to avoid existing problems of password memorability and associating passwords ...
Additionally, we would like to thank Furkan Alaca and Paul van Oorschot for their helpful comments that improved this paper. ...

MARASIM
2011
Proceedings of the 2011 annual conference on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '11
Marasim is aimed at achieving the security of random images with the memorability of personal images. ...
These concepts are retrieved from the tags assigned to the image. We illustrate how a Jigsaw based approach helps to create a portfolio of system-chosen random images to be used for authentication. ...
However, in real life, users are unlikely to create three passwords simultaneously and to recall them one after the other. ...

Tightly-Held and Ephemeral Psychometrics: Password and Passphrase Authentication Utilizing User-Supplied Constructs of Self
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
This research investigates the role of passwords and passphrases as valid authentication methodologies. ...
Specifically, this research dispels earlier work that ignores information-theoretic lessons learned from cognitive and social psychology and psycholinguistics, and extends and enriches the current password ...
This fact may be leveraged by an attacker examining a visual authentication system that does not make use of randomized image locations. ...

Leveraging motor learning for a tangible password system
2012
Proceedings of the 2012 ACM annual conference extended abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems Extended Abstracts - CHI EA '12
Since TUIs require users to use their hands in order to interact with the system, there is the possibility for these systems to leverage motor leaning to perform specific tasks. ...
To resolve this problem, the benefits of TUIs must be analyzed and matched to an application domain where they hold advantages over more traditional systems. ...
Discussion of Password Memorability A system which leverages motor learning may offer its own benefits (e.g. memorability), but at this time it is unknown exactly how memorable the system's passwords are ...

Leveraging 3D Benefits for Authentication
2017
International Journal of Communications, Network and System Sciences
Our user study finds that 3DPass has superior memorability versus traditional alphanumeric passwords: 98% vs 83% recall rates after one week. ...
Our security analysis of 3DPass demonstrates that 3DPass can exceed the password space of an 8 character alphanumeric password with just 6 choices. ...

An Exploration of Graphical Password Authentication for Children
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
Both children and adults prefer graphical passwords to their existing schemes, but password memorization strategies differ considerably between the two groups. ...
Based on our findings, we provide recommendations for designing more child-friendly authentication schemes. ...
The scenario was more difficult than would be in a real life situation, e.g., users do not normally have to memorize three different passwords in a very short time frame. ...

Graphical passwords
2012
ACM Computing Surveys
Starting around 1999, a great many graphical password schemes have been proposed as alternatives to text-based password authentication. ...
We then review usability requirements for knowledge-based authentication as they apply to graphical passwords, identify security threats that such systems must address and review known attacks, discuss ...

Proceedings of the Eighth Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security - SOUPS '12
In a 1,476-participant online study, we explored the usability of 3-and 4-word systemassigned passphrases in comparison to system-assigned passwords composed of 5 to 6 random characters, and 8-character ...
Users tend to create passwords that are easy to guess, while systemassigned passwords tend to be hard to remember. ...
Jeyaraman and Topkara suggest randomly generating a lower-case password and then automatically creating a mnemonic for that random password in order to make system-assigned passwords more memorable [26 ...

Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive Mobile Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies
Users choose their trinkets similar to setting a password, and authenticate by presenting the same trinket to the camera. The fact that the object is the trinket, is secret to the user. ...
In a user study with 42 participants over 8 days in 3 sessions we found that Pixie outperforms text based passwords on memorability, speed, and user preference. ...
Pixie is perceived easier, more memorable and faster than text passwords for login and the perceived advantage is not due to random choice. ...
