We started putting all the personal and official materials also in binaries. Even though the digital methods are simple and user friendly, we encounter serious problem with data theft.    Passwords are invented to secure our information, but it had been hacked from Alibhaba period. Every service provider of internet services and mobile applications trying something new to make our access secure, but we won’t adopt it until some incident took place.    We have no evidence about the origin of passwords, but we came to know that passwords were used in different forms even in ancient days.
