Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, grade: 80, SRM University (SRM), course: B.TECH, language: English, abstract: Passwords are simple yet are also a critical component in most security systems. As the password needs to protect the user's secure information, it is required to be secure and make it hard for a third party to crack on to a system. It is therefore important to provide a best-practice password creation and management policy that may be universally used by everyone. In this paper, we look at the most used password policies and practices and propose differences in the shape of our own new policy. Finally, we show visualized data and implementation of the password policy in real time.
