Digital Identity
Session Title | Episodic Image Memory for Solid Digital Identity
Secret credentials are indispensable for identity assurance, whereas text-only passwords are hard to manage. Um... Why not consider Non-Text secret credentials?
As an advocate of ‘Identity Assurance by Our Own Volition and Memory’, I am promoting the concept of Expanded Password System (EPS) that accepts unforgettable images and is deployable on existing text-only password systems, which is intended to be a legitimate successor to the time-honored seals, autographs and text password systems.
The observation that images are easy to remember has been known for many decades; it is not our theme. What we discuss is that ‘images of our emotion-colored episodic memory inscribed deep in our brain’ is ‘Hard to Forget’ to the extent that it is ‘Panic-Proof.
