It addresses authentication security for users by integrating psychological factors, though it appears incremental in enriching existing models.
This research tackles the problem of password and passphrase authentication by incorporating insights from cognitive and social psychology and psycholinguistics, extending the current security model to address gaps in earlier work.
This research investigates the role of passwords and passphrases as valid authentication methodologies. Specifically, this research dispels earlier work that ignores information-theoretic lessons learned from cognitive and social psychology and psycholinguistics, and extends and enriches the current password security model.
