Claims14
A computer implemented identity protection system comprising:
- a memory to:
- store a plurality of user passwords;
- and
- a processor coupled with the memory to:
- provide a dashboard for user identity protection of a plurality of digital identities associated with the user for a plurality of different online service providers, which includes at least one identity tool to evaluate at least one security state of a user outside the computer, collect biometric security data with a biometric security mechanism to ensure that only the user can access the dashboard, the biometric security mechanism tying the user's physical biometric data to the plurality of digital identities, and display a password security state in the dashboard that is indicative of an overall password strength score associated with the plurality of user passwords stored in the memory, the plurality of user passwords corresponding to the plurality of different online service providers, wherein the overall password strength score is calculated from a plurality of individual password strength scores and a combined password strength score, the plurality of individual password strength scores determined by a password evaluator that evaluates a strength of each of the plurality of saved user passwords separately and the combined password strength score determined by a combined password evaluator that evaluates a strength of the plurality of saved user passwords in conjunction with each other.
