Implementation of Password Validation using a Combination of Letters, Numbers and Symbols in the New Student Registration Application
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aims to evaluate the implementation of password validation using a combination of letters, numbers and symbols in new student registration applications in increasing the level of application security. This research method involves implementing a password validation system with strict criteria, as well as testing password strength using brute force attacks. The test results show that passwords that meet the criteria take time 150 seconds to be broken using brute force, while passwords that only use letters only take time 10 seconds. Surveys of users show that 70% feel comfortable with this validation system, though 40% find it difficult to create a valid password. As much 85% users consider this system to improve application security. This research suggests that new student registration applications adopt a strict password validation system to increase the protection of users' personal data, while providing solutions for users to create more secure passwords.complex but easy to remember. The implementation of this system is expected to strengthen application security and increase user confidence in the protection of their personal data.
