ABSTRACT:
A password entry method and apparatus prompts a user for entry of a password and outputs dynamic password entry interface legitimacy information in response to the prompt for entry of the password. The dynamic password entry interface legitimacy information may be a hard to duplicate animated image, audio sequence, or other suitable legitimacy information that allows a user to visually or audibly determine whether the password entry interface being presented is legitimate. Accordingly, the user will know whether or not to trust the password entry interface, such as a password dialog box displayed on a display device, prior to entering password information.
