Hereinafter, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 using a change in the hidden symbol display pattern will be abbreviated as the password awareness improving apparatus 100 and described.

1 is a diagram schematically illustrating a method of improving password awareness using a change in a hidden symbol display pattern according to one disclosure.

According to one disclosure, the apparatus 100 for improving password awareness may provide a hint for a password using at least two hidden symbols in order to improve the user's password awareness.

The hide symbol is a symbol displayed instead of a password entered by a user or a symbol used to inform the password, and is a symbol displayed to hide the actually entered password. In addition, according to one disclosure, the hidden symbol in the present invention may mean a preset symbol for each type of characters included in the password actually input by the user in order to improve the user's password awareness. By the beginning, the hidden symbol is fixed to the type of character and is not set, and may be used temporarily or may be changed periodically.

For example, the hidden symbol can be any one of special symbols such as *, !, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *,?, and a symbol selected from numbers, uppercase letters, and lowercase letters can be used. May be. For example, the hidden symbol of * for numbers, & for uppercase English letters,% for lowercase English letters, and # for special symbols may be used. The hidden symbol may be any one of special symbols that are not used when generating an actual password. However, this is only an example and is not limited thereto.

As shown in Fig. 1, the user can enter an ID and password to log in to the site. The password actually entered by the user can be displayed as the same hidden symbol. Alternatively, when the user's ID is input, the same hidden symbol (* on the drawing) may be displayed according to the number of characters included in the password mapped to the user's ID. In other words, it can be confirmed that the user's password is 10 digits.

However, when the password input by the user is different from the actual stored password, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may display different hidden symbols for each type of characters included in the user's password in order to improve the user's password awareness. . That is, as shown in the drawing, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a hidden symbol of * for numbers, & for uppercase English characters,% for lowercase English characters, and # for special symbols.

For example, when the actual user password is 1234+$AszT, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may inform the user what kind of characters constitute the password by displaying ****##&%%&. Since the user memorizes the unique pattern of the password set by the user, there is an effect of being able to easily memorize the password that he has actually registered by checking the hidden code.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of improving password awareness using a change in a hidden symbol display pattern according to one disclosure.

In block 201, the password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may receive a user input for inputting a user ID and a first password. The user ID is unique information of a user and means a unique account for using a predetermined site or service. Here, the first password refers to a password currently input by the user for login, and does not refer to a previously registered password itself.

According to one initiation, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may use another hidden symbol to inform the user of the state in which the first password is input. For example, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may notify the input of the first password using a predetermined special symbol while the first password is input. For example, when a 5-digit password is input by the user, the password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may display the user's password input by entering +++++ in the password input window.

In block 202, the password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may determine whether the user password mapped to the user ID matches the first password. That is, the user ID and the user password registered at the time the user created the account are stored mapped to each other. Thus, the user ID is mapped to the unique user password. Here, the user password means a password registered by the user and stored as unique information for login, and represents the most recently updated user password.

The password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may determine whether the first password is a correct user password by determining whether the user password and the first password are identical.

In block 203, when the first password and the user password do not match, the password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may display the first notification password using the same hidden symbol as the number of characters constituting the user password. have.

That is, when it is determined that the first password input by the user is incorrect, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may generate and display the first notification password in order to improve the user's password awareness. Here, the first notification password is used to inform the number of characters included in the user password, and is displayed using the same hidden symbol. For example, if the password input by the user is 1234+$AszT, the first notification password may display the first notification password with the same 10 hidden symbols (ex. **********). .

In block 204, the apparatus 100 for improving password awareness may determine whether the second password matches the user password as the user input for inputting the second password is received.

That is, the user who has checked the number of characters in the password that he has entered through the first notification password can enter the password again, and the password awareness enhancement device 100 determines whether the input second password and the user password are identical. can do.

In block 205, when the second password and the user password do not match, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display the second notification password using the same number of types as the number of characters constituting the user password. .

By initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may analyze the number and location of uppercase English letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols constituting the user password. For example, if the user password is 1234+$AszT, it consists of 4 types of characters, of which 4 numbers, 2 special symbols, 2 English uppercase letters, and 2 lowercase English letters can be checked.

The password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may generate hidden symbols of different shapes as many as the number of analyzed English uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols. That is, four hidden symbols can be determined to correspond to four types of characters. In this case, the hidden symbols corresponding to each of the uppercase letters in English, lowercase letters in English, numbers, and special symbols may be predetermined or may be temporarily issued hidden symbols. For example, when the user password is 1234+$AszT, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may determine the hidden symbols of ****, ##, &&, and %%.

The password recognition enhancement apparatus 100 may randomly arrange the generated hidden symbols by an initiation. For example, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may randomly arrange the hidden symbols of ****, ##, &&, and %%. For example, it can be arranged like **##&%%**&, etc., and the order of arrangement is according to a random rule.

By the beginning, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 inserts an empty space after the three hidden symbols based on the initially arranged hidden symbols, and inserts the empty space after placing three hidden symbols after the empty space. Can repeat. That is, a blank space can be inserted between the hidden symbols so that the user can easily recognize the number of hidden symbols and displayed. For example, the password awareness enhancement device 100 may display a hidden symbol such as *** *## &%% &. Inserting an empty space after the three hidden symbols is just an example, and the number of characters between the empty spaces is not limited.

By initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a hidden symbol whose arrangement is completed as a second notification password.

Furthermore, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may determine whether the third password matches the user password as the user input for inputting the third password is received.

In addition, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may generate a third notification password by displaying an original character corresponding to any one type of hidden symbol among a plurality of types of hidden symbols included in the second notification password. In addition, the third notification password may be transmitted to the user's account registered in advance.

In addition, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may periodically randomly change the arrangement of characters included in the user password in order to increase the security of the user's password. After the password is changed, the apparatus 100 for improving password awareness may generate and display the fourth notification password by displaying a hidden symbol corresponding to the type of characters whose arrangement is randomly changed as a user input for logging in is received. In more detail, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a fourth notification password upon receiving a user input for inputting a user ID and a third password. The password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display the fourth notification password on the screen or transmit the password to a user's account registered in advance.

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining a method of generating and displaying a notification password when an incorrect password is input by a user by an initiation.

According to an initiation, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may receive a first password input by a user. For example, if the user password mapped to the user ID is 1234+$AszT, the password awareness enhancement device 100 compares the user password with 123+$szT input as the first password, and 4 is omitted from the input password. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the first password is incorrect.

The password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may determine that the first password is incorrect by an initiation and may display a notification password. Here, the notification password may be generated by analyzing the number and location of uppercase English letters, lowercase letters, numbers and special symbols constituting the user password, and using a corresponding hidden sign. By initiation, the notification password may be a random arrangement of hidden symbols. As shown in the drawing, by arranging in %&**##&**%, it is possible to make the user aware of the type and number of characters used in the actual user password.

Then, the password awareness enhancing apparatus 100 may receive a second password from the user. The second password is a password once again input by the user who recognizes the notification password, and the user may input 1234+$Aszt as the second password.

The apparatus 100 for improving password awareness may determine that the last t of the second password is input in lowercase letters instead of uppercase letters, and thus is different from the user password. Accordingly, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may improve the user's password awareness by arranging the hidden symbols to correspond to respective character types.

In addition, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a notification password on a screen or transmit a notification password to a user account or a pre-registered user terminal. Furthermore, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display the notification password only to a user who wants to check the notification password.

4 is a diagram for illustratively explaining a feature of generating a notification password according to an initiation.

The password recognition enhancement apparatus 100 may display the hidden sign in various ways by initiation.

By initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a hidden symbol corresponding to the type of character to correspond to the password character, and insert a blank space between the hidden symbols to display how many characters the password consists of. I can.

By initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may analyze the number and location of uppercase English letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols constituting the user password.

The password recognition enhancement apparatus 100 may generate hidden symbols of different shapes as many as the number of analyzed English uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols.

By the start of the day, the first hidden symbol corresponding to uppercase English letters is placed in the place where the uppercase English letters are located in the user password, the second hidden symbol corresponding to lowercase English letters is placed in the place where the lowercase English letters are placed in the user password, and the third is corresponding to the number. The second notification password can be generated by placing the hidden symbol in the place where the number is located in the user password and the fourth hidden symbol corresponding to the special symbol in the place where the special symbol is located in the user password.

By the start of the day, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display the second notification password by inserting a number indicating the number of digits based on the first arranged hidden sign in the empty space, As a user input for inputting the third notification password is received, the number may be changed and displayed.

By initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display the number of digits of the first notification password together with the first notification password. The password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may display a number in the empty space of the hidden symbol or the number of digits below the hidden symbol. For example, by displaying 3 under ***, it is possible to confirm that the character corresponding to the type of * must be entered up to the fourth.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a feature of outputting a notification message in order to improve the user's password recognition by initiation.

According to an initiation, the apparatus 100 for improving password awareness may help the user to log in by using a notification message in order to improve the user's password awareness. In addition, in addition to the notification message, it is possible to improve the user's password awareness by transmitting a password notification message through SNS, text message, mail, or the like.

By initiation, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may display a hidden symbol through a password notification message, and further, the password awareness improving apparatus 100 may display the number of hidden symbols as numbers.

According to an initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may change the number of hidden symbols displayed in the notification password as the password is inputted from the user, and may delete the hidden symbols corresponding to the input notification password. For example, when four passwords are input by a user, four hidden symbols displayed in the password notification message may be deleted, and the number may be changed from 10 to 6.

According to a user input for sequentially inputting the second password, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may delete the hidden symbol constituting the first notification password as many as the number of input characters, and all characters constituting the user password When the number of is input, at least one of a vibration notification, a pop-up notification, and a sound notification may be output.

According to one disclosure, when a user's password input is incorrect, the password recognition apparatus 100 may change and display a shape of a hidden symbol corresponding to the incorrectly inputted character. For example, even though the user has to input uppercase English letters, when inputting lowercase letters in English, the color of the hidden symbol corresponding to the uppercase English letters may be changed and displayed. It can also be notified through pop-up messages, sound notifications, and vibrations.

When the number of digits of the first notification password becomes 0, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may output at least one of a vibration notification, a pop-up notification, and a sound notification to notify that a password of all digits has been input. That is, when all the correct passwords are input, the apparatus 100 for improving password awareness by initiation may output a notification so that the user recognizes that the correct password has been input.

By an initiation, the password awareness enhancement apparatus 100 may arrange a hidden symbol or generate a password notification message using an artificial intelligence learning model.
