We contribute to the effort of making users choose passwords that are robust against guessing-attacks. Our particular idea is to consider also the users’ understanding of password strength in security mechanisms. We demonstrate how eye tracking can enable this: by analysing people’s gaze behaviour during password creation, its strength can be determined. To demonstrate the feasibility of this approach, we present a proof of concept study (N = 15) in which we asked participants to create weak and strong passwords. Our findings reveal that it is possible to estimate password strength from gaze behaviour with an accuracy of 86% using Machine Learning. Thus, we enable research on novel interfaces that consider users’ understanding with the ultimate goal of making users choose stronger passwords.}, articleno = {9}, doi = {10.1145/3448017.3457384}, isbn = {9781450383448}, numpages = {12}, owner = {florian}, timestamp = {2021.06.10}, url = {http://www.florian-alt.org/unibw/wp-content/publications/abdrabou2020etra.pdf}, video = {abdrabou2021etra}, }
