Path password input method based on contacts

Abstract

The invention relates to a path password input method based on touch spots, which is as follows: an input device displays a password input matrix on the display screen of the input device; users lay off a path from the password input matrix as a password through a mouse or a touch screen and other input devices, the password input information is transferred to a processor in the input device; the processor of the input device transforms the path password information into letters or figures, then compares the letters or the figures with the pre-stored password in the processor, if matching, the password validation is passed, and if not, the users need to return to re-input the password. The path password input method based on touch spots has the advantages that: the users orderly pass each spot of the password input matrix to form the path as the password, which ensures the password input becomes easy and rapid, improves the memorability of the password and high intensity of the setting,; and the path password does not have any relations with the personal profile, which is not easy to form the password dictionary. The path password input method based on touch spots not only can be used for password input, but also can be used as a short cut for starting a certain program or can be used as a shortcut key of a certain function of the program.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The present invention relates to the field of information technology, in particular to a password protection technology commonly used in various modern input devices. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the continuous development of information technology, people's privacy is becoming more and more important. Therefore, when users use various input devices, such as computers, mobile phones or PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), they usually set passwords to prevent others from seeing the data in the device. stored information. But it is inevitable that password theft happens frequently, and passwords are more and more easy to be stolen, so there are more and more types of passwords. Fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, usb key (electronic key), etc. have appeared. The above-mentioned passwords are extremely confidential and will not be destroyed by malicious people. However, these new technologies are not transferable, that is, only the pas...

Problems solved by technology

The current solution is to continuously increase the number of passwords to enhance the strength of the password, but too many passwords make the input method slow, and it is very difficult for users to remember, so passwords are often forgotten.

And the keyboard password input method, most of the passwords used by users are related to personal information, so it is easy to generate password dictionaries, and now most of the cracking is based on password dictionaries to crack passwords
