A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Hashed Password Exchange Author(s) : S.M. Bellovin Filename : draft-bellovin-hpw-00.txt Pages : 11 Date : 2012-01-04 Many systems (e.g., cryptographic protocols relying on symmetric cryptography) require that plaintext passwords be stored. Given how often people reuse passwords on different systems, this poses a very serious risk if a single machine is compromised. We propose a scheme to derive passwords limited to a single machine from a typed password, and explain how a protocol definition can specify this scheme.
