摘要: A system for analyzing and modifying passwords in a manner that provides user with strong usable/memorable password. The would propose password has relevance can be remembered. invention evaluate the to ascertain its strength. evaluation is based on probabilistic cracking trained sets of revealed generate guesses highest probability order. If user's proposed enough, accepted. not will reject it. rejected, modifies suggests one or more stronger passwords. modified have limited modifications Thus, tested memorable
