Abstract
A password authentication mechanism based on the public-key distribution cryptosystem is proposed. The scheme uses an authentication table to replace the traditional password file. With this scheme, even if the authentication table is comprised, the system security is preserved. The user´s password is effectively bound to the user´s identification in a timely, efficient, and simple manner
