Abstract
State of the art authentication mechanisms have limitations when used by Basic Emergent User (BEU). Embodiments herein provide method and system for recognition based multi-skill-multi-sensory passwords with dynamic identification of sensor combination based on end user skill, specifically for the BEU. The method disclosed generates user profile using a task-based technique to determine skill and capability of the user associated with each of a plurality of sensory categories used for generating a multi-skill-multi-sensory password. Each of the plurality of sensory categories are graded is descending order based on user's skill and capability and user is offered to select each password entry from a particular sensor category in accordance with the identified grade in each iteration. Thus, the entropy of password generation in the context of user is split among the sensor categories. Furthermore, recognition-based out of sequence approach is used during user authentication instead of more challenging memorizing-based approach.
