There is more and more data breach happening today. As a result, the same username and passwords can cause confidential stuffing.
Although people are suffering from credential stuffing, they are getting more frustrated managing many different passwords. We conducted a survey for users and interviewed some of them.
People always use meaningful information for passwords, such as date of birth, a pet’s name, etc. In this way, they can remember passwords better.
“When I don’t know how to make a new password, I always use my birthday with my name capitals.”
“I can tell you that my password contains my dad’s birthday since he taught me how to use a computer when I was very young.”
We explore the concept of gamification and try to implement it into our product. The paper also shows that gamification works to motivate.
FUNKEY motivates users to adapt to better password management.
“Gamification is a special experience and powerful design methodology to engage users and help them get motivated.”
We came up with several game ideas. When users choose and play a game, their inputs will be recorded and translated to passwords through FunKey. Since FUNKEY does not save users’ passwords, only online services users use will be able to identify and grant access.
