Abstract
In the present sophisticated digital era, safe communication of user password from one source to the other is quite difficult in client/server system. Also storing the password as it appears increases the potential risk of the security. Protection of the password is at most important in group communications to avoid the access of the illegal person to group resources. In addition, a roaming user who uses the network from different client terminals requires access to the private key. The present paper explains secure communication of password from one entity to the other. Here the password is encrypted using elliptic curve over finite field, embedded in a large random text at different selected positions, and communicated to the receiver via public channel.
