Abstract: Security policies are required that protect information from illegal access, and also respect challenges users face in creating, and particularly managing, increasing numbers of passwords. With the increase in dependence of people on internet services for their day to day activities the number of passwords in use is more, the relationship between the passwords and the services is more complex. Each of the users follows their own strategy to remember and manage. Clearly, managing multiple passwords requires effort for creation, encoding, retrieval and execution. Most of us rely on the memory or reuse of passwords for easy management. The intricate characteristics of secure passwords, however, posit an unfortunate problem for password users. That is, whereas such passwords are difficult to be guessed by intruders, they are in general considerably difficult to be remembered by authorized users. This paper proposes a highly secure scheme that facilitates complex password management at ease without lack of user-friendliness.
