Today user authentication stands out as one of the most essential areas in information security which has several ways of being implemented. From time in memorial authentication schemes that apply strong text-based passwords have been typically expected to offer some assurance of security. But committing to memory such strong passwords can prove to be quite a daunting task thus forcing users to resort to writing them down on pieces of papers or even storing them onto a computer file.
