Abstract
A method and a device for generating a password for access to a service. The method includes the following steps on a password generating device connected to a user terminal: obtaining a first item of data representative of at least one symbol; depending on the obtained first item of data, obtaining at least one second item of data having at least two symbols for a symbol of the first item of data; generating a third item of data, referred to as the password, from the at least one second item of data; and transmitting the password to the terminal.
Claims12
A method for generating a password for accessing a service, said method being performed on a password generating device connected to a terminal of a user and comprising:
- obtaining a first datum representative of at least one symbol;
- as a function of the first datum obtained, obtaining at least one second datum comprising at least two symbols for one symbol of the first datum;
- generating a third datum, called the password, from said at least one second datum;
- and
- transmitting said password to the terminal.
A device for generating a password, comprising:
- a transmitter,
- a memory;
- and
- a processor which is configured to:
- obtain a first datum representative of at least one symbol;
- as a function of the datum obtained, obtain a second datum comprising at least two symbols for one symbol of the first datum;
- generate a third datum, called the password, from said at least one second datum;
- and
- transmit said password via the transmission module.
(canceled)
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising code instructions stored thereon which, when the program is executed by a processor of a password generating device, carries out a method for generating a password for accessing a service, said method comprising:
- obtaining a first datum representative of at least one symbol;
- as a function of the first datum obtained, obtaining at least one second datum comprising at least two symbols for one symbol of the first datum;
- generating a third datum, called the password, from said at least one second datum;
- and
- transmitting said password to a terminal of a user.
