RANDOM PASSWORD GENERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240028700 titled 'RANDOM PASSWORD GENERATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a random password generation device that includes a processor and a memory device. The memory device contains instructions that allow the device to determine a random password parameter, which defines a generated random password. The device can generate a random password based on the random password parameter when a generation trigger is activated, granting the user access to an application. Additionally, the device can reset the random password to a user-defined password when a predetermined user command is entered.
- The device includes a processor and a memory device.
- The memory device contains instructions executable by the processor.
- The instructions allow the device to determine a random password parameter.
- The random password parameter defines a generated random password.
- The device can generate a random password based on the random password parameter.
- The random password grants the user access to an application.
- The device can reset the random password to a user-defined password.
- The reset is triggered by the entry of a predetermined user command.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Password management systems
- Security systems
- User authentication systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Generating secure and random passwords
- Granting user access to applications
- Allowing users to reset their passwords
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved security by generating random passwords
- Simplified password management for users
- Enhanced user authentication and access control
Original Abstract Submitted
in an example in accordance with the present disclosure, a random password generation device is described. the device includes a processor and a memory device communicatively coupled to the processor. the memory device includes instructions executable by the processor. the instructions include instructions to determine a random password parameter, wherein the random password parameter defines a generated random password. the instructions also include instructions to, responsive to a generation trigger, generate a random password based on the random password parameter, wherein the random password is to grant a user access to an application. the instructions also include instructions to, responsive to entry of a predetermined user command, reset the random password to a user-defined password.
