This
digital world made every human to depend on electronic gadgets. Laptops and
tablets become part of human life were mobile become an organ. 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. Earlier secret words called code words to recognize a Spy
and other person who are all in the secret services; later patterns were used
to hide the information.
In
the recent electronic period password is set up using the numbers later it is
called a PIN (Personal Identification Number) numbers. Finally, we got to use
the texts as passwords and later as combinations. This consists of alphabets,
including one alphabet in caps, numbers and special character (Symbol). The
other way patterns took place again in the smart phones and tables, especially
devises having touch screens. The other options we use instead of passwords are
like voice recognition, retina scanning, biometric devices, smart cards and
etc. But passwords are still used as the alternative for the above said
methods.
