Les Honeywords : des faux mots de passe pour piéger les hackers

Les Honeywords : des faux mots de passe pour piéger les hackers | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Aujourd'hui il est possible de piéger les pirates informatiques. Les RSSI (Responsables de la Sécurité des Systèmes d'Information) ont désormais la capacité de se doter de leurres pour éliminer les vols de mots de passe grâce aux « honeywords ».

Ce sont de faux mots de passe qui déclenchent des alarmes dans le système chaque fois que des pirates tentent d'accéder à des comptes.

Deloitte predicts that in 2013 more than 90 percent of user-generated passwords, even those considered strong by IT departments, will be vulnerable to hacking.

 

Inadequate password protection may result in billions of dollars of losses, declining confidence in Internet transactions and significant damage to the reputations of the companies compromised by attacks.

 

As the value of the information protected by passwords continues to grow, attracting more hack attempts, high-value sites will likely require additional forms of authentication.
