ABSTRACT:
Presently disclosed herein are a method, system, and computer-readable medium for managing a user-defined genre-based password. In one embodiment, the method includes steps for creating a genre-based tree that can be used to prompt a user in remembering a user-created password. In an exemplary embodiment, the method for creating the password includes the steps of: presenting, to a user, a first question; receiving, from the user, a first input answer to the first question; presenting, to the user, a subsequent question that is based on the first input answer to the first question; receiving, from the user, a subsequent input answer to the subsequent question; and based on the first input answer and the subsequent input answer, creating a pathway of nodes, in a genre-based tree, to a correct end-node, wherein content of the correct end-node, which is based on the subsequent input answer, provides a basis for a user-defined password, and wherein the content of the correct end-node prompts the user to remember the user-defined password.
