Abstract: Authentication is a process that ensures and confirms user’s identity. Studies have shown that user tend to pick short passwords or passwords that are not easily forgotten. But both Textual, graphical password have issues of hacking and cloning. Hence we propose a technique, where text can be combined with images or colors to generate passwords for authentication. This paper provides authentication using different color codes rankings based on the current time of the system. Also the chances of hacking are vey less as the color password changes after every one minute. It is a two step authentication process as it uses color codes as well as unique PIN number for each user.
Keywords: Authentication, brute force attack, color password, dictionary attack, hacking, PIN number, shoulder surfing.
