Abstract

User authentication depends largely on the concept of passwords. However, users find it difficult to remember alphanumerical passwords over time. When user is required to choose a secure password, they tend to choose an easy, short and insecure password. Graphical password method is proposed as an alternative solution to text-based alphanumerical passwords. The reason of such proposal is that human brain is better in recognizing and memorizing pictures compared to traditional alphanumerical string. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a conceptual framework to better understand the user performance for new high-end graphical password method. Our proposed framework is based on hybrid approach combining different features into one. The user performance experimental analysis pointed out the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
