| | Password - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | When a user types in a password on such a system, it is run through the hashing algorithm, and if the hash value generated from the user's entry matches the hash stored in the password database, the user is permitted access. |  | | So a student's password might not be worth more than a few seconds of computer time, whilst a password controlling access to a large bank's electronic money transfer system might be worth many weeks of computer time. |  | | If the user supplies a password matching the one stored for the supplied user name, he or she is permitted further access into the computer system. |

| | Password Security |
 | | Passwords are the primary way Red Hat Linux verifies that the user logging into the system is who he claims to be. |  | | This way if one system is compromised, all of your machines will not be immediately at risk. |  | | Slurpie — Slurpie is similar to John The Ripper and Crack except it is designed to run on multiple computers simultaneously, creating a distributed password cracking attack. |

| | Passwords: the Weak Link in Network Security |
 | | Entering the user name and password every time a user wants to access a different resource on the computer or network would be cumbersome, so the authentication process is made transparent to the user after the initial logon. |  | | Although the equipment is somewhat expensive and the software is not yet perfected, biometric authentication has the potential to be the most secure way of verifying that a person is who he claims to be. |  | | However, if the data on your computer or network is especially sensitive, your organization should consider supplementing password authentication with some other authentication method. |

| | Authentication, Authorization, and Access Control |
 | | The idea is to tie a built-in data structure to the contents of the file, such that when the data structure is changed, the file is automatically modified at the same time. |  | | On Windows, a similar precaution should be taken, changing the ownership of the password file to the web server user, so that other users cannot read the file. |  | | While it is debatable whether this is a good idea, since it effectively overrides the entire point of having security in the first place, it is certainly convenient for the user, and simplifies the user experience. |
