20100287382 | Two-factor graphical password for text password and encryption key generation - This invention details systems, methods, and devices for providing a two-factor graphical password system to a user so that the user may obtain access to a restricted resource. A first previously selected image (previously selected by the user) is presented to the user to enter his password by sequentially selecting predetermined areas on the first image. The user's input is used to create an encryption/decryption key which is used for communicating between a user application and a device. If the user has entered the correct password, then the device can communicate with the user application. Once the device can communicate with the user application, a second previously selected image (previously selected by the user) is presented to the user from the device. The user enters his second password and the user's input is sent to the device. The device then creates the user's alphanumeric password or another encryption key from the user's input and sends this to the user application. The user application then transmits the password or key to the system which restricts access to the restricted resource. | 11-11-2010 |
