Global Login System $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Global Login System is a single signon open source protocol, designed to allow any user logged in on his or her account to one of the sites using it, to be authenticated when visiting any other site using it. It aims to be used universally over the Internet, so that each user only needs to have one account with login and password on one designated home site, in order to access anything and operate anywhere on the web that s/he is allowed to. Its difference from other single signon systems is that there is no central database of users, so that this system can scale indefinitely by allowing every site of the network to have a separate (hidden) list of users.

Password Manager $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A password manager is software that helps a user organize passwords and PIN codes. The software typically has a local database or files that holds the encrypted password data. Many password managers also work as a form filler, thus they fill the user and password data automatically into forms. These are usually implemented as a browser extension. Password managers can also be used as a defense against phishing. Unlike human beings, a password manager program, which can handle automated login script is not susceptible to visual imitations and look alike websites. With this builtin advantage, the use of a password manager is beneficial even if the user only has a few passwords to remember. However not all password managers can automatically handle the more complex login procedures imposed by many banking websites. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.

Random Password Generator $93.99 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A random password generator is software program or hardware device that takes input from a random or pseudorandom number generator and automatically generates a password. Random passwords can be generated manually, using simple sources of randomness such as dice or coins, or they can be generated using a computer. While there are many examples of random password generator programs available on the Internet, generating randomness can be tricky and many programs do not generate random characters in a way that ensures strong security. A common recommendation is to use open source security tools where possible, since they allow independent checks on the quality of the methods used. Note that simply generating a password at random does not ensure the password is a strong password, because it is possible, although highly unlikely, to generate an easily guessed or cracked password. A password generator can be part of a password manager. When a password policy enforces complex rules, it can be easier to use a password generator based on that set of rules than to manually create passwords.

Improving Password Usability with Visual Techniques $96.59 The design of a password system is a complex process. Ideas from computer science, cognitive science, and human factors research should all be considered in the development of an improved password system. While current technology is more than capable of providing a cryptographically secure authentication, users are limited in their ability to remember difficult passwords and make judgments about security. In this work, these problems have been addressed by a new picturepassword system. The design process is described in detail and initial results are analyzed and explained. For those unfamiliar with the field, sufficient background is given through a survey of related work. This work is intended for those in the computer science and cognitive science fields, but can be read by anyone with an interest in password issues.

Perfect Password by Burnett, Mark Edition ILL, 1 $26.99 User passwords are the keys to the network kingdom, yet most users choose overly simplistic passwords (like password) that anyone could guess, while system administrators demand impossible to remember passwords littered with obscure characters and random numerals.Every computer user must face the problems of password security. According to a recent British study, passwords are usually obvious: around 50 percent of computer users select passwords based on names of a family member, spouse, partner, or a pet. Many users face the problem of selecting strong passwords that meet corporate security requirements. Too often, systems reject user-selected passwords because they are not long enough or otherwise do not meet complexity requirements. This book teaches users how to select passwords that always meet complexity requirements. A typical computer user must remember dozens of passwords and they are told to make them all unique and never write them down. For most users, the solution is easy passwords that follow simple patterns. This book teaches users how to select strong passwords they can easily remember.* Examines the password problem from the perspective of the administrator trying to secure their network* Author Mark Burnett has accumulated and analyzed over 1,000,000 user passwords and through his research has discovered what works, what doesn’t work, and how many people probably have dogs named Spot* Throughout the book, Burnett sprinkles interesting and humorous password ranging from the Top 20 dog names to the number of references to the King James Bible in passwords |
