In the context of an HTTP transaction, basic access authentication is a method for an HTTP user agent (e.g. a web browser) to provide a user name and password when making a request. In basic HTTP authentication, a request contains a header field in the form of Authorization: Basic <credentials> , where <credentials> is the Base64 encoding of ID ...
An increase of Laravel's userbase and popularity lined up with the release of Laravel 3. [1] Laravel 4, codenamed Illuminate, was released in May 2013. It was made as a complete rewrite of the Laravel framework, migrating its layout into a set of separate packages distributed through Composer, which serves as an application-level package manager.
The illustrated flow relies on PIN-based user verification, which, in terms of usability, is only a modest improvement over ordinary password authentication. In practice, the use of biometrics for user verification can improve the usability of WebAuthn. [citation needed] The logistics behind biometrics are still poorly understood, however ...
A confirmation code is a short piece of data (code, cypher) that is used for purposes of confirmation of a particular attribute or property such as personally identifiable information. CAPTCHA - a computing scheme used to identity an entity as a human being and not a program, employing the current differences in text recognition capability ...
A password field in a sign-in form. A password, sometimes called a passcode, is secret data, typically a string of characters, usually used to confirm a user's identity.. Traditionally, passwords were expected to be memorized, [1] but the large number of password-protected services that a typical individual accesses can make memorization of unique passwords for each service impractica
Data validation is intended to provide certain well-defined guarantees for fitness and consistency of data in an application or automated system. Data validation rules can be defined and designed using various methodologies, and be deployed in various contexts. [1]
In order for a CSRF attack to work, an attacker must identify a reproducible web request that executes a specific action such as changing an account password on the target page. Once such a request is identified, a link can be created that generates this malicious request and that link can be embedded on a page within the attacker's control.
In scenarios where a panic password is used to limit access control, instead of triggering an alarm, it is insufficient to have a single panic password. If the adversary knows the system, a common assumption, then they will simply force the user to authenticate twice using different passwords and gain access on at least one of the two attempts ...
