RU2766840C1 - Method for increasing information protection from unauthorized access - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: computer technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of computer technology. The effect is achieved due to a method for protecting information from unauthorized access to information when using an alphanumeric password with lowercase and/or uppercase Latin letters, and/or Cyrillic letters, and/or mathematical characters, while the duration of pressing the keyboard key must correspond to the following fixed intervals: short - 0.1-0.5 s; average - 0.5-1 s; long - 1-2 s, which are provided by the password, and the unpressed state of all keys - 0.1-3 s; before typing password characters and after typing the password, all keys of the keyboard must be released within 5-8 s; if one of the entered characters and the characters of the password or the time of pressing the key does not match the one set in the password, the password entry program is finalized to exclude a hint about where the mistake was made; after entering the password with an error three times, the password entry program starts working three hours after the mains or battery is reapplied.

EFFECT: increasing the protection of information from unauthorized access.

Description

The technical field to which the invention belongs

The invention relates to the field of protecting information from unauthorized access.

State of the art

A known method of protecting information from unauthorized access through a digital or alphanumeric password.

The disadvantage of this method is that when using special hacking programs, this protection can be bypassed.

There is a known method of protecting information from unauthorized access due to a numeric, alphanumeric, password or password, which is a mix of numbers, lowercase and uppercase Latin letters, mathematical signs and other symbols. The ideal password length is 8-16 characters.

The disadvantage of this method is that when using special hacking programs, this protection can also be bypassed.

This technical solution was chosen as a prototype.

Disclosure of invention

The technical result is the protection of information from unauthorized access through the use of fixed time intervals for the duration of pressing or released state of the keyboard keys. This is especially important when using brute-force programs for hacking, where the duration of entering a character (“pressing a key”) is taken constant. If one of the input characters and password characters do not match, the program will start receiving characters after 8 seconds and continue for 30 seconds. After entering the password characters with errors three times, the password character recognition program starts working three hours after mains or battery power is applied.

The method of protecting information from unauthorized access to information by using an alphanumeric password with lowercase and/or uppercase Latin letters, and/or Cyrillic letters, and/or mathematical characters is different in that

the duration of pressing a keyboard key should correspond to the following fixed intervals: short - 0.1-0.5 s; average - 0.5-1 s; long - 1-2 s, which are provided by the password, and not the pressed state of all keys - 0.1-3 s;

before typing password characters and after typing the password, all keys of the keyboard must be released within 5-8 s;

if one of the entered characters and the characters of the password or the time of pressing the key does not match the one set in the password, the password entry program is finalized to exclude a hint about where the mistake was made;

after entering the password with an error three times, the password entry program starts working three hours after the mains or battery is reapplied.

Implementation of the invention

When compiling a password, information is protected from unauthorized access based on the use of an alphanumeric password with lowercase and/or uppercase Latin and/or Cyrillic letters, mathematical signs and/or other symbols.

The duration of pressing a keyboard key should correspond to the following fixed intervals: short - 0.1-0.5 s; medium - 0.5-1 s; long - 1-2 s, which are provided by the password, and not the pressed state of all keys - 0.1-3 s;

before typing password characters and after typing the password, all keys of the keyboard must be released within 5-8 s;

if one of the characters entered and the characters of the password or the time of pressing the key do not match, the password entry program is completed to the end in order to exclude a hint about where the mistake was made;

after entering the password with an error three times, the password entry program starts working three hours after the mains or battery is reapplied.

Claims (5)

A method for protecting information from unauthorized access to information by using an alphanumeric password with lowercase and/or uppercase Latin letters, and/or Cyrillic letters, and/or mathematical characters, characterized in that the duration of pressing a keyboard key should correspond to the following fixed intervals: short - 0.1-0.5 s; average - 0.5-1 s; long - 1-2 s, which are provided by the password, and the unpressed state of all keys - 0.1-3 s; before typing password characters and after typing the password, all keys of the keyboard must be released within 5-8 s; if one of the entered characters and the characters of the password or the time of pressing the key does not match the one set in the password, the password entry program is finalized to exclude a hint about where the mistake was made; after entering the password with an error three times, the password entry program starts working three hours after the mains or battery is reapplied.
