ABSTRACT Graphical Authentication System is one of the most secured formats of encryption of our Valuable Data.

In that authentication system gets vary in selecting a image and handling the particular image as an Password, Since because we need an e cellent authentication system we are going for an alternate model in which we apply some different techni!ues in enhancing a image as a password. Simply selecting a image and presenting them as a password will be definitely a wea"er one or it is possible that any "nown person or eavesdropper can identify the Password which may result in losing our own data. In order to overcome all the problems which leads us in losing our own data this pro#ect been developed with some different method in which password through images is not an identical one but entirely different one when compared with different login attempts, the variance in selecting the images at login times will provide us a very high security in encrypting the data overall. $e t passwords are the most commonly used techni!ue for authentication and have several drawbac"s. Graphical passwords provide a promising alternative to traditional alphanumeric passwords due to the fact that humans can remember pictures better than te t. In this paper, we propose a simple graphical password authentication system that consists of a se!uence of %n& images and the user have to select the clic" points associated with one of the %n& image in correct se!uence for successful login. $his authentication system employs the user&s personal handheld device as the second factor of authentication. 'ith the increasing popularity of handheld devices such as cell phones, our approach can be leveraged by many organi(ations to overcome threats such as "ey)loggers, shoulder surfing, wea" passwords. *ere instead of handheld devices we have set a verification code system which will be sent to the user registered mail)id from there on he can start using our encryption system once the mail)id is registered.
