Abstract

ABSTRACT Authentication is performed using passwords that are alphanumeric in nature. However, users find it difficult in remembering a password that is long and needs to be recalled again and again while implementing it. Instead, they create short, simple, and insecure passwords that make the user’s data vulnerable to outside attacks. Graphical passwords provide a way out of this dilemma by making passwords more rememberable and easier for people to use as a password and, therefore, makes it more secure. Using a graphical password, users clicks on images rather than typing text passwords which contains alphanumeric characters. The basic idea of using the image segmentation system is that using images as a security will lead to high memorability and decrease the chances to choose insecure password. This application will be developed using Html, Css, JavaScript
