(Update from 19th June 2015) Many people seem to take it for granted that the password-related domains are all very congested. However, congested are the domains AROUND the password, i.e., biometrics, two/multi-factor schemes and ID federations (single-sign-on services and password management tools), all of which have to depend on the use or combined-use of the password either for security or convenience. No congestion is seen as yet IN the domain of the very successor to the head-aching character-based password. In this domain our Expanded Password System that accepts images as well as characters would be found outstanding as a pioneer.

2. Few people can recall more than several unique passwords due
to the cognitive phenomenon called “Interference of Memory”.
The password predicament can be largely mitigated by our
that accepts images
as well as conventional characters.

There are
several known
pictures in the
matrix
I can easily find all
of them right away
Only I can select all
of them correctly
Both images and characters accepted, I now have broader choices.

4. Multi-factor authentications?
- Dependent on a password as one of
the factors !
Biometrics?
- Dependent on a password in
case of false rejection !
ID federations?
- Dependent on master-
password !

- Life with no safe sleep !
is unique in that it enables users to make use
of “episodic/autobiographic” image memory that is
the least susceptible to “interference of memory”

Congested with many competitions are the domains AROUND
the password,
i.e., biometrics, two/multi-factor schemes and ID federations
(single- sign-on services and password management tools),
all of which depend on the use or combined-use of the password
either for security or convenience.
No congestion is seen as yet IN the domain of the very successor to
the head-aching character-based password.
In this domain our Expanded Password System that accepts images
as well as characters would be found outstanding as a pioneer.
Simple picture passwords including “emoji”-PIN and pattern-on-grid
methods can be deployed on the EPS platform.

Better security gained for users of password-managers and SSO
services thanks to a more reliable master-password.
Even better security gained for users of two/multi-factor authentication
schemes thanks to a more reliable password as one of the factors.
Less bad security gained for users of biometric product operated with a
fallback password thanks to a more reliable fallback password.
Nothing lost for users who do not like the troubles of using images
because they can keep using character-based passwords as before.
Lost is a small extra trouble of getting images registered.

On Advisory Board will be Laurent Liscia, CEO of OASIS, with the message:
"As the CEO of OASIS, a standards organization that has an established track record in identity
management, security and privacy, I see the wisdom in the principles put forward by the Mnemonic
Security team. Their approach may not be new-fangled or "hip", but it is rooted in a deep
understanding of human needs in relation to security and authentication. The value proposition of
their mnemonic software is quite clear in this ever-so-hot market, and I see potential in the
consumer arena."

10. Past : Algorithm completed. Basic products line-up
completed in Japanese. Intellectual assets secured.
Experimental US$1million sales achieved in Japan.
Present : Planning to raise the fund to set up
the headquarters in UK, re-write the software in
English and re-launch the business operation
from UK for the global markets.
Future : Set up the regional operation centres
in USA , India and Singapore. Aiming to be
floated at London Stock Exchange.
