Abstract
In general, embodiments of the present invention relate to password management. Specifically, a user selects a variable parameter rule from among a set of variable parameter rules. The variable parameter rule includes a set of variable parameter values. The user defines two or more static passwords and maps each static password to a variable parameter value. To access a protected source, the user must enter a valid password that matches one of the static passwords based on a current variable parameter value associated with the variable parameter rule.
