    摘要: A method of protecting a password being used to establish interaction between a user and an application includes detecting a request for the password from the application by receiving a notification from the user indicating the request. The method further includes combining the password with information identifying the application, so as to produce a protected password, and authenticating to the application using the protected password. The method may also include a mutual authentication capability between user and the application.

    摘要: Methods for regenerating a strong secret for a user, based on input of a weak secret, such as a password, are assisted by communications exchanges with a set of independent servers. Each server holds a distinct secret value (i.e., server secret data). The strong secret is a function of the user's weak secret and of the server secret data, and a would-be attacker cannot feasibly compute the strong secret without access to both the user's weak secret and the server secret data. Any attacker has only a limited opportunity to guess the weak secret, even if he has access to all messages transmitted in the generation and regeneration processes plus a subset (but not all) of the server secret data.
