Secure Passwords With Microsoft’s InkBlots
Microsoft Research has launched a new Web site called InkBlot, which shows, a series of Rorschach Inkblots and helps users create a secure, personal password that is easy to remember. The user is presented with a sequence of random inkblots. Each should remind the user of a word. For each image, the user then types the first and last letters of the word that come to mind, like ‘by’ for butterfly. www.InkblotPassword.com currently has 1,000 inkblots in its database. It was quite hard for me to understand the concept. I think they may migrate from .net passport authentication to Inkblot in future. i have read about such a technology is being researched in MS
