Abstract
Methods that can verify a password utilizing commitments are provided. One method includes receiving from a client device and storing, by a processor, an initial commitment representing a password for a user account without storing the actual password on the apparatus, receiving, from the client device, a subsequent commitment, and verifying that the subsequent commitment represents the password for the user account based on a difference between the initial commitment and the subsequent commitment. Systems and apparatus that can include, perform, and/or implement the methods are also provided.
