[Prior Art] [0002] Password protection can be seen everywhere in daily life, such as computer passwords. Password door lock, bank password, etc. Typically, users use a combination of digits and characters as a password. However, when a combination of digits and characters is used as the password, the illegal user can use the password cracking software to crack the password of the legitimate user, so that the information of the legitimate user cannot be effectively protected. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a password protection method with higher security performance. [0004] A password protection method includes the following steps: [0005] Displaying a color on a display interface in a preset form a graphics area in which the color in the graphics area is transformable; [0006] recording a color parameter of the graphics area generated by the user selecting an operation on the graphics area to generate input information; [0007] receiving user confirmation [0008] The operation should be confirmed, and the generated input information is compared with the preset password information to perform password verification. [0009] With the above password protection method, the user creates a password by using the color in the graphic area 098121519 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 17 0982036571-0 201101086. The user can select the color in the graphic area by using an input device such as a mouse or a touchpad to complete the password input operation. Since the password of the legitimate user is composed of the color parameters of the graphic area, the illegal user cannot crack the password of the legitimate user by the password cracking software, so that the user's information is effectively protected.

The password input interface includes one or more .regions, each of which is assigned an independently varying color. For example, the password input interface has a first area, a second area, and a third area. The colors displayed in the first area, the second area, and the third area periodically or randomly change. As shown in FIG. 2, the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 are displayed on the touch screen 20 of the electronic device 10. The first region 30 is a circular region. The second region 32 and the third region 34 are annular regions concentric with the first region 30. The second area 32 and the third area 34 are respectively divided into four equal sub-areas: sub-areas 320, 321, 322, 323 and sub-areas 340 098121519 Form No. A0101 Page 4 / Total π page 0982036571-0 201101086, 341 342, 343, each sub-area is filled with a periodic or random color change, for example, the color in each area can be as shown in Figure 3: from red-yellow-blue-green-purple y-white-red back The order of the circles changes. Accordingly, the first region 3〇, the sub-region of the second region 32, and the sub-region of the third region 34 have color parameters that vary periodically or randomly. Since there are many different combinations of color parameters of the respective sub-areas of the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34, the user can configure the personal password by selecting the color in each area according to personal preference. [0012] 步骤 ο Step S102' records the input of the color parameter generated by the user's selection of the color input operation of each region. This input information is used as the password information to be authenticated. When the user selects the colors of the respective sub-areas of the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 displayed on the touch screen 20, the corresponding color parameters are recorded. Wherein, when the color parameters of each of the sub-regions in the second region 32 and the third region 34 are selected, not only the color parameter 'encoded by the sub-regions' but also the combination parameters of the colors filled between the sub-regions are recorded. Taking the second area 32 as an example, the four sub-areas 320, 321, 322, and 323 include two color parameters of red and yellow, and the four sub-areas 320, 321, 322, and 323 are filled with colors of red, yellow, and red, respectively. ,yellow. Of course, the colors of the four sub-areas 320, 321, 322, and 323 may also be yellow 'red, yellow, red, or red, yellow, yellow, and red, respectively. It can be understood that when the color parameter of each sub-area of the third area 34 is recorded, it is similar to the second area 32, and is not described here [0013] 098121519. Step S104, receiving the confirmation operation of the user, that is, the confirmation operation of the user password input completion. The confirmation operation may be implemented by the physical form number A0101 page 5 of the electronic device 1 or the π page 098203657 0 201101086 button 11, or may be implemented by the touch button 21 on the touch screen 20, or may be It is achieved by detecting whether the time of stopping the input reaches a predetermined time interval. In the present embodiment, the confirmation operation is realized by the touch confirmation button 21 on the touch screen 20, and the key input interface is exited by the touch cancel button 22. [0014] Step S106, the response operation is confirmed, and the generated input information is compared with the preset password information to perform password verification. The preset password information is provided by a user to select a first area 30, a second area 32, and a third area 34, and the user selects the first area_domain 30 and the second area 32 in a specific manner. The changed color in the third area 34 is used for password setting. The preset password information package: color parameters of the first area 3〇, the second area 32, and the third area 34 [0015] In addition, the first area 3〇, the second area 32, the third area 34, and The sub-areas in the second area 32 and the third area 34 are assigned different labels, so that the labels corresponding to the respective areas can be sequentially recorded in accordance with the user operation of the first area 3 〇, the second area 32, and the third area 34 to record The label is used as a sequence parameter as input information. For example, in step S102, when the user inputs the color of each sub-area of the first region 32, the color of the four sub-regions 320, 321, 322, 323 is selected with reference to the user's pin or counterclockwise. . In the password verification, the nickname recorded in the hour or counterclockwise direction is used as the password authentication information, thereby increasing the complexity and diversity of the input information as the information to be encrypted. [0016] b 14 is $^• is the password protection method flow 098121519 of the first preferred embodiment. The password protection method includes the following steps: Form number fine 1 page 6 / total U stomach 0982036571-0 201101086 ' [0017] Ο Step S500, displaying the first region, the second region, and the third region having colors on the display interface in a preset form. The colors displayed in the first area, the second area, and the third area periodically or randomly change, and the second area and the third area are rotatable relative to the first area. As shown in FIG. 5, the first area 33, the second area 36, and the second area 38 are displayed on the touch screen 20 of the electronic device 10. The first region 33 is a circular region, and the second region 36, the second region 38 is concentric with the first region 30. The second area 36 and the third area 38 are respectively divided into equal three sub-areas 360, 361, 362, 380, 381, 382, and the colors displayed in each sub-area also change periodically or randomly. The user can operate the second area 36 on the touch raise 20, the third area 38 rotates relative to the first area 33 according to personal preference, and select the rotated angle parameter of the second area 36 and the third area 38 to configure the personal password. . Among them, the angle parameter includes the rotated angle value and the direction of rotation. [0018] Ο Step S502, recording the color parameter generated by the user's input operation of selecting the color of each area and recording the angle parameter generated by the operation of rotating the second area and the third area by the user, according to the recorded color parameter And angle parameters generate input information. This input information is used as the Mima information to be authenticated. For example, please refer to FIG. 6 at the same time, when the user operates the touch screen 2, the third area 36, and the third area 38 rotates relative to the first area 33, the 'starting' record of the second area 36 and the third area 38 is relative to The degree of rotation of the first region 33, correspondingly, is displayed on the first region 33. The angle table 39 is displayed with the angle value rotated by the region 36 and the third region 38, and the user is stopped to operate the second region 36, The angle table 39 is hidden on the touch screen 20 when the three regions 38 are rotated. 〇982〇娜71-0 098121519 Form No. A0101 201101086 [0019] Step S504, receiving a confirmation operation of the user. [0020] Step S506, the operation should be confirmed, and the generated input information is compared with the preset password information to perform password verification. For example, the preset cryptographic information includes color parameters of the first area 33, the second area 36, and the third area 38, and angle parameters of the second area 36 and the third area 38. [0021] The above password protection method breaks the traditional combination of fixed digits and letters. Since the color in the region and the order of selecting the first region 30, the second region 32, and the third region 34 are used as passwords, the user only needs to The input operation of the password is performed by performing an operation of selecting a color on the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 by using an input device such as a mouse, a touch panel, or a touch panel. Since the password of the legal user is composed of the color parameters and the sequence parameters of the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34, the illegal user cannot crack the password of the legitimate user by using the password cracking software, so that the user's information is valid. protection. In addition, the above password protection method is interesting compared to conventional fixed digits and letters.
