Windows 8 new security features in 2012
Windows 8 new features
are given on every website. But I got something new which was available in the end of December. It is regarding Windows 8 security passwords which are important topics to discuss. This time Microsoft takes pleasure to raise all those security issues, and one of the best raising features of Microsoft Windows 8 is picture password security feature, which is used to protect operating system from unauthorized access. Microsoft revealed in BUILD conference that Picture Password will be secondary log-in option for the upcoming operating system. It is not a replacement for test passwords and set as a main feature for Windows 8 Phones too. The touch screen and desktop for high security performance in Windows 8 operating system has been set in such a ways that it is compatible with technical details of new log-in method.
The touch screen is available with a package that provides opportunity to look for a new way to sign into your PC. Some websites claimed that Microsoft's president openly discussed that Microsoft is providing fast mechanism to deal with super important touch capability. Moreover, you can also manage alpha passwords using touch screen phones. Windows 8 users are provided with an option to choose personal image to play with gestures on the photograph with reference of touch screen. It allows you to use mouse with gestures that include lines, circles and taps.
The images are divided into grid points by defining coordinates for system to match gestures accurately. The difference between each changed gesture and original gesture is used to authenticate errors used in system. Image types, ordering and directions will look at gestures and decide which section to authenticate. Every user is given five chances to input password before getting your system shut down and it will reverts you back with text password log in attempt and returns you back at Picture Password method. Microsoft provides secondary log-in attempt for standard password systems to provide more security which will be acknowledged later to give away passwords to screen users.
The secondary log-in method will display optional home PCs and domain administrators for disabling option. It gives protection to customers in order to provide large amount of permutations. Windows 8 hits the market and will expect to be rollout at autumn season.
Windows 8 new features include password storage in cloud
It seems that Windows 8 developers have decided to include tight security and added provision of including passwords in cloud storage. It is Windows 8 password storage in cloud which has higher possibility of killing person's own data even if user account is locked out of system. Windows 8 safe storage automatically kills the user name and password combinations using newer approach of protecting digital identity of the user.
Account protection is identified by more than 25 accounts by a single user. It keeps track of 25 passwords and make it difficult task for individual user to extract any another user information but official reports show that only 6 password unit are unique among them. It provides security against hacking attacks that include Phishing, Brute Force, Cracking, Key-logging etc. In order to improve security attack in Windows 8 operating system, two approaches have been implemented by providing automatic storage and access information of multiple account names and passwords for websites in a protected safe mode. For example- remember password and username option in Internet Explorer will save names as cookies for various websites in your system but in Windows 8 it is using this option with certain security improvements such that it imposes certain constraints.
It is Windows 8 signing feature which can only take place through Windows Live ID and provides user ability to synchronize stored information with trusted computers only. It sets password user account as a unique process and saves it as remember my password option with certain constraints.
