Analysis of Authentication on Online Purchase Using Honey Password

This research study is intended to solve the security threats of using passwords in purchasing products online. After thorough study, the researchers found out that there is a need for them to discuss the password security mechanism that eventually will help secure the password online and it can be protected using authentication of passwords based in honey words. Honey words are used to detect hackers by inducing them for attacking using Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS). The user has to register with the online server and it generates random set of passwords to the users called honey words. The users' original passwords are hashed and stored along with the honey words. Further, the researchers would discuss on how the password converted into another format using Advanced Encryption System (AES) algorithm and stored along with the honey words.
