Abstract
Graphical passwords, as opposed to textual passwords, require the user to pick pictures or draw symbols rather than input written letters. They are an option that may be explored in order to get over the issues that are caused by the system of passwords that are based on text. It has been hypothesized that graphical passwords are more difficult to crack using a brute force technique or to figure out through guessing. This paper proposes an authentication system based on a graphical password method. The proposed system computes the password points using histogram arithmetic and encrypts the chosen password points using SHA512. The envisioned system has been realized as an android application and evaluated with existing research considering multiple measurements such as required login time, password space, and entropy. The findings reveal that the new suggested system outperforms the reference work by more than 85% in terms of login latency and more than 72% in terms of entropy results.
