Abstract

Security is key concern for any application and protecting from unauthorized user has become more challenging now a days. The enhance attacking methods have affected each authentication techniques and their architecture. The loopholes where the attacker can interrupt the security system has increased. In this proposed method a divergent technique is performed for deterrence from security breach. The novelty in the proposed method is that it is coalition of one-time secure password and image authentication test. Adding textual password and with appropriate image authentication can enhance security to the next level. The one-time secure password is generated from a grid interface provided and can be used only once and will be reformed at each login time. The one-time secure password is generated using the respective 8-character password registered. Therefore, this report discusses the vital areas of different authentication techniques to underline the gap. This report discusses the architecture of the proposed method and the implementation of how it is carried out and the evaluation of the system to distinguish the level. The proposed method can be a resistant from shoulder surfing and keylogging attacks.
