Authentication-based access to applications is widely used for computer privacy and security. However, users tend to choose weak passwords that are easy to remember, such as their birth date, phone number, or the name of a loved one, instead of using a combination of alphabets, numerals, and special characters. Graphical password authentication is a novel approach to user authentication that allows users to select images as passwords instead of alphanumeric strings. In this proposed system, users can select an image from a category of images that they have searched for. The selected image is then divided into several grids, and the user chooses a grid as the password. This method offers several advantages over traditional password authentication methods, including enhanced security, ease of use, and increased memorability. Additionally, graphical passwords are more resistant to attacks such as shoulder surfing and key loggers. Overall, this proposed system provides a secure, user-friendly, and visually appealing alternative to traditional password authentication methods.
