Abstract:
A system and method for performing image-based authentication requires users to enter an image-based password in order to access a secure system or network. A user may identify at least one password image, and may enter the system or network if he or she selects each of the password images shown in a group of images on the display. Additionally, the user may designate specific locations for multiple password images on a user interface, and a user may enter the system or network if he or she locates each of the password images in its designated location on the user interface.
