The use of patterns or shapes in place of passwords is set to displace the hacker's favourite - the old-fashioned vulnerable fixed ID code which can so easily be captured and re-used - according to the two British inventors behind ShayypeTM.
Shayype is many times more secure than passwords, gives users new hacker-resistant login codes every time, yet is far easier to recall and use than passwords.
Already one UK firm - leading insurance quotation site 3XD - has announced plans to trial Shayype as soon as possible to protect customers and its own website from hacking. CEO David Fulluck said: "Urgent action is required across the financial technology sector in the wake of the alarming number of hacks and data breaches currently happening. But until now, the big question has been - how? What's so interesting about Shayype is that it takes vulnerable static passwords out of the equation completely, but is easier to use."
