Autonomous hint generator

Abstract

Embodiments define a secure code hint generator that determine an occurrence of security word text content within electronic message body text that is descriptive of a security token required to open a secured file referenced by the message. The embodiments distinguish a security phrase subset words of the body text content from a remainder of an entirety of the body text content that include the security word content as a function of determining that the security phrase is more related to describing the security token; generate hint text content that differs from the security phrase and is chosen to reveal the security phrase text content to a user as a function of knowledge of user profile data; and associate the hint to the secured file for display to the user in response to a request for access to the secured file.
