Abstract
An electronic device and method for authentication of users based on re-entry of passwords is provided. The electronic device retrieves a pre-stored password associated with a user and a predefined number associated with the retrieved pre-stored password. The retrieved predefined number corresponds to a number of times an entry of a correct password is required for an authentication of the user. The electronic device receives a set of user inputs that corresponds to an entered password associated with the user. The electronic device compares, for the number of times associated with the user, the entered password in each user input with the retrieved pre-stored password. The electronic device determines that the entered password in each user input corresponds to the retrieved pre-stored password, based on the comparison. The electronic device authenticates the user based on the determination and controls a display device to render authentication information based on the authentication.
