Securing Passwords: An Approach Inculcating Argon2 and Three-Fish Algorithm

Attacks such as phishing and hacking are becoming more common for individuals without authorization in the current environment. Because of this, authorized users of any domain, especially online, are having a difficult time in securing their data. The use of password mechanism at relevant locations is the primary suggestion to survive in these kinds of difficulties. By establishing the data validity in a manner that is more impenetrable, this work contributes to protect unauthorized access by password management. But there is always a possibility that passwords will be compromised at some point of time. Hashing passwords using memory-intensive function known as Argon2i is used in this work along with other approaches to strengthen the legitimacy of process. Consequently, a high-throughput hardware designed Three fish algorithm is used to improve security of user’s password.
