Abstract

Authentication to a computing system is composed of two parts, identification and verification. Traditionally, login IDs have been used for identification and passwords for verification. The method that can augment the current password-based system by strengthening the identification process. It utilizes personal secret data instead of a login ID to identify a user uniquely. It then asks the user to choose a correct login ID among multiple choices of partially obscured IDs. Since it does not accept a login ID during the authentication process, a stolen or cracked password cannot be used for gaining an access to the computing system unless the attacker provides a correct identification material. Hence in this paper, provide more security in the system. The security can be provided using user authentication, device authentication and captcha as a protocol step.
