Electronic password validation method for e.g. chip card, involves controlling successive positions of movable pointer, and validating positions, where part of positions is in one-to-one correspondence with characters constituting password

摘要

The method involves positioning parts constituting a screen, in one-to-one correlation with a set of characters from which characters for password are chosen. Successive positions of a movable pointer are controlled, where part of the positions is in one-to-one correspondence with the characters constituting the password. The positions are validated and characters are concatenated to obtain a word in correlation with the password. An independent claim is also included for a computer program product comprising instructions for execution of electronic password validation method.
