Abstract

Systems and methods for weak authentication data reinforcement are described. In some embodiments, a request to authenticate a user is received. A user password is determined to be a weak password. The user is verified to be human by initiating a human verification process. In response to verifying that the user is human, an option is provided to replace the weak password with a strong password.
