Abstract

A method of auto updating a password comprises opening a password file and a new password file and reading information from the password file including user ID type. The method applies the user ID type to a predetermined application type and executes password-updating logic to generate a new password for the application type. The method further updates the new password file with the new password for the predetermined application type. A system comprises at least one of a hardware component and a software component configured to read information from a password file including user ID type. The hardware component and/or software component is further configured to determine that the user ID type matches to an application type and to apply the user ID type to the matched application type. The hardware component and/or software component is further configured to generate a new password for the application type and to update the password file with the new password for the application type.
