Method and system for creation of compliant password by inplace feedback to password composition policy

Abstract

There is a need for design and implementation of interfaces for providing user-friendly feedback while creating and updating compliant passwords. This disclosure relates to a method of creating compliant password by in-place feedback to a password composition policy (PCP). A policy-enabled-virtual keyboard (PKBD) receives input from a user and is processed based on parameters associated with the PCP to identify accessible and inaccessible keys on the PKBD with in-place feedback. The in-place feedback is provided to highlight accessible keys of the PKBD for the user, if class associated with character, or mandated number of characters by the PCP are received are covered. Alternatively, the keys of the PKBD are disabled for access to the user by validating if class associated with character received are not covered, and a deviation of the parameters. A compliant password is created based on the PCP by providing in-place feedback for a resultant validation.
