Abstract
The passwords are the keys you are using to access personal information that youpsilave stored on your computer and in your online accounts. A strong password should appear to be a random string of characters. Online accounts, computer files, and personal information are more secure when you use strong passwords to help protect them. Unfortunately, it is hard to create easy to use, strong passwords and keep them well protected. In this research, new method of generating complex password based on mouse clicks and cursor coordinates position on screen is presented. Our aims are that use can successfully generate complex and secure password based on computer mouse clicks and cursor position on the screen. Our implemented system can differentiate individuals based on mouse clicks, screen positions and user time. This approach is different from techniques referred to as ldquovoice & text passwordrdquo which adding the user voice to his/her text password or ldquokeystrokes passwordrdquo which using the user typing key approach.
