Abstract
Over the years, information and network security in the field of computer is an everlasting troublesome area under discussion. Information and network security instigates with the user. The important feature of security is ‘Password Authentication.’ A human-created password comes from a small domain. It is just a matter of time for hackers to break security measures with the available computer power and tools. Online services can be accessible by using distinct passwords with varying strengths. Cracking or decoding the password has created serious challenges or threats in providing security of the information. Highly secured password generation therefore has become a challenging task. In this work, Petri net-based array password generation has been done. The methodology adapted in this paper is novel and more immune.
