چکیده
Click-based graphical passwords, like other user-selected passwords, suffer from predictability problems. With click-based graphical passwords, user click-points form hotspots, areas of the image that are more likely to be selected, which e-criminals can predict and use to launch dictionary attacks. Our system, Persuasive Cued Click-Points, helps users select more random click-points and reduces the appearance of hotspots while still maintaining usability.

متن کاملMultiple Password Interference in Text and Click-Based Graphical Passwords
People have difficulty remembering multiple passwords. This results in reduced security as users reuse the same password for different systems or reveal other passwords as they try to log in.
