The conventional method of authentication requires the user to remember a text based password which he enters in order to prove his legitimacy. Since security cannot be compromised, such passwords are usually lengthy and complicated else they would be cracked easily with various password hacking techniques. The user thus finds it difficult to remember such passwords and often tends to forget them. Therefore, a more secure and attractive method can be created using graphical authentication. In this paper we propose a system where the user can define one region per image over a sequence of images and the access is given if he clicks in the correct region for the given image. We have also introduced several user friendly functions which aim to provide additional security as well as ease of access to its users.
