An Efficient Security Model for Password Generation and Time Complexity Analysis for Cracking the Password

Abstract

Passwords tend to be one of the most popular approaches to protect operating systems and user’s data also. Most businesses rely on password protection schemes, and secure passwords are incredibly necessary to them. The proposed model typically aims to impose protection by forcing users to obey protocols to build passwords. For user protection, password has become a prevailing method in terms of exposure to scarce tools. The main problem with password is its consistency or power, i.e. how simple (or how difficult) a third person can be "assumed" to enter the tool that you use while claiming to be you. In operating systems, text-based passwords remain the primary form of authentication, following major improvements in attackers' skills in breaking passwords. The proposed Random Character Utilization with Hashing (RCUH) is used for generation of new passwords by considering user parameters. The proposed model introduces a new framework to design a password by considering nearly 10 parameters from the user and also analyze the time for cracking the generated password to provide the system strength. The proposed model aims to generate an efficient security model for password generation by considering several secret parameters from the user. To break a set of consistency passwords, analysis is also performed on time for password cracking. The tests show a close positive correlation between guessing complexity and password consistency. The proposed model is compared with the traditional password generation and cracking models. The proposed model takes much time in cracking the password that improves the systems security.
