Abstract
Nowadays; passwords are widely used for authentication and they are the main targets of many hackers. Over the past few years; there were several unfortunate major password leak incidents. Billions of passwords were exposed to public due to unsecured password storing methods. To further exacerbate the situation; many users prefer to use the same password on multiple websites or services. Hence; a password leak from one source will likely cause damage to users’ data in many other systems. In this study; we proposed a secure method for storing passwords by incorporating prime decomposition technique. The novel Prime Decomposition Password Storing (PDPS) technique does not store original or encrypted password; but allows the same password to be converted differently on different systems without adding extra information. We claimed that the proposed PDPS can protect the confidentiality of the password in the event of password database leaked.
