Passwords are a popular means of authentication for online accounts, but users struggle to compose and remember numerous passwords, resorting to insecure coping strategies. Prior research on graphical authentication schemes showed that modifying the interface can encourage more secure passwords. In this study we explored the use of implicit (website background and advertisements) and explicit (word suggestions) cues to influence password composition. We found that 60.59% of passwords were influenced by the interface cues. Our work discusses how designers can use these findings to improve authentication interfaces for better password security.
