Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] [0001] The present invention relates to the field of message security, and in particular to a method for password protection. [Prior Art] [0002] Password protection can be seen everywhere in daily life, such as Computer password, 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 at least one graphic on a display interface in a preset form [0006] Recording the angle parameter generated by the user's rotation of the graphic area, generating input information; [0007] receiving the user's confirmation operation; [0008] returning the confirmation operation, the generated input information and the preset Password information comparison, password verification. [0009] With the above password protection method, the user creates a password using the angle parameter rotated by the graphics area. Users only need to input with mouse, touchpad, etc. 098121518 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 15 0982036570-0 201101095 The operation of the graphic area is rotated to complete the password input. Since the password of the legitimate user is composed of the angle parameter of the graphic area, the illegal user cannot crack the password of the legitimate user by using the password cracking software, so that the user's information is effectively protected. Embodiments [0010] The present embodiment provides a password protection method, which may be represented by a set of code codes stored in a memory of an electronic device. After the electronic device performs the password protection method, the electronic device The display area displays a graphic area that can be rotated by the user, and the electronic device performs password protection by recording an angle parameter rotated by the graphic area as an input password. The electronic device may be a mobile phone with a touch screen, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a bank ATM teller machine, or the like. Referring to FIG. 1, the password protection method includes the following steps: [0011] Step S100, displaying a plurality of graphic areas on a display interface in a preset form. Each graphics area includes one or more sub-areas. For example, each of the graphic regions has a first region, a second region, and a third region. Wherein, the second region, <the third region, is rotatable relative to the first region. In the password registration phase, the user can operate the second area and the third area to rotate relative to the first area according to personal preference, and select the rotated angle parameters of the second area and the third area to configure the personal password. Among them, the angle parameter includes the rotated angle value and the direction of rotation. [0012] In this embodiment, the first area, the second area, and the third area are respectively assigned with independent fixed colors, and the color and the user are the first area, the second area, and the third area in the password registration stage. The set color corresponds. Thus, when multiple graphic areas are displayed on the display interface, the user can 098121518 form number A0101 page 4 / total 15 pages 0992036570-0 201101095 Ο to quickly find a corresponding graphic area according to the color set in the password registration stage . For example, referring to FIG. 2, a password input interface 23 is displayed on the touch screen 20 of the electronic device 10. The password input interface 23 includes graphic areas 24, 25, 26 and 27, and the touch screen 20 is displayed after the user selects the graphic area 25. As shown in FIG. 3, the graphic area 25 includes a first area 30, a second area 32, and a third area 34; the first area 30 is a circular area, and the second area 32 and the third area 34 are A region 30 is concentric annular region; the second region 32 and the third region 34 are respectively divided into four equal sub-regions: sub-regions 320, 321, 322, 323 and sub-regions 340, 341, 342, 343. The first area 3〇 and each of the sub-areas 320, 321, 322, 323, 340, 341, 342, 343 are filled with a fixed color. The colors are obtained by the user assigning the first area 30 and the sub-area transmissions 320, 321, 322, 323, 340, 341, 342, 343 on the touch screen 20 according to personal preference.

This input information is used as the password information to be authenticated. For example, when referring to FIG. 3, when the user operates the touch screen 20 to display the second area 32 and the third area 34 rotates relative to the first area 30, the recording of the second area 32 and the third area 34 relative to the first area is started. 30 rotated angles, correspondingly, an angle table 35 is displayed on the first area 30 to display the angle value and the direction of rotation of the second area 32 and the third area 34 to the user's operation at the user's second operation When the area 32 and the third area 34 are rotated, the angle table 35 is hidden on the touch screen 20. [0014] 098121518 The above recorded angle value can be obtained as follows: in the judgment of the user form number Α0ΗΠ page 5/total 15 pages 0982036570-0 201101095 When the angle of rotation of the second region 32 and the third region 34 exceeds a threshold, a fixed value is generated and recorded, for example, the threshold is 30 degrees, and the fixed value is 60 degrees 'as long as the user operates the second region 32 When the angle of rotation of the third region 34 exceeds 30 degrees, the fixed angle value of 6 degrees is recorded as an angle value. Thus, the user does not need to accurately rotate the second area 32 and the third area 34 to complete the password rounding operation. [0015] Step S104, receiving a confirmation operation of the user. That is, the confirmation operation of the user password input completion may be implemented by the physical button 11 of the electronic device 1 or by the touch button 21 on the touch screen 2〇, or may be stopped by detecting the input. Whether the time reaches a predetermined time interval is achieved. [0016] Step S106, the operation should be confirmed, and the generated input information is compared with the preset password information to perform password verification. The cryptographic information of the child is operated by the user to operate the second region 32 and the third region 34 in advance in a specific manner by providing a password setting interface including the first region 30, the second region 32, and the third region 34. To set the password. For example, the preset password information includes an angle parameter rotated by the second area 32 and the third area 34. [0017] In other embodiments, a graphic area 25 is displayed on the touch screen 20 of the electronic device 10, and colors in the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 of the graphic area 25 are periodically changed. After the user selects the colors in the sub-regions of the first region 30, the second region 32, and the third region 34, the colors on the sub-regions of the first region 30, the second region 32, and the third region 34 stop changing. The second region 32 continues to operate, and the third region 34 rotates relative to the first region 30. Thus, the user selected color 098121518 form number A0101 page 6 / 15 page 0982036570-0 201101095 parameter and the angle parameter of the second region 32, the third region 34 rotated relative to the first region 30 as the input information 'increased The complexity of the input information as the information to be authenticated. [0018] The above password protection method breaks the conventional combination of fixed digits and letters, because the angle and the first region selected by the first region 30, the second region 32, and the third region 34 are rotated. The color in the third area 32 and the third area 34 is used as a password, and the user only needs to operate the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 to rotate and select by using an input device such as a mouse, a touch panel, or a touch screen. The color in the first area 30, the second area 32, and the third area 34 can complete the input operation of the password. Since the password of the legal user is composed of the angle parameter and the color parameter 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 secret code. Information is effectively protected. In addition, the above password protection method is interesting relative to conventional fixed digits and letters. In summary, the present invention complies with the invention patent and submits a patent application according to law. However, the above is only the implementation of the Lijia of the present invention. Anyone who is familiar with the skill of the present invention, equivalent modifications or variations in the spirit of the present invention should be included in the following patent application. [0020] For example, the above embodiment can also be applied to a desktop computer and a notebook computer, and the user can operate the first region and the third region by using a mouse or a touchpad. The first area, the second area, and the third area also include other geometric shapes, such as an ellipse, a rectangle, a square, a hexagon, an octagon, and any other polygon. In addition, the angle parameter of any of the above regions may be used as the password information. 098121518 Form No. Α0101 Page 7 of 15 0982036570-0 201101095 [Simple Description of the Drawings] [0021] FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing the steps of the password protection method of the first preferred embodiment. 2 is a schematic diagram of a password input interface of the password protection method of FIG. 1.
