Patent attributes
Various embodiments include systems and methods to implement a password requirement conformity check. During a password reset process, a proposed password is received. A homomorphic encryption operation may be performed on the proposed password to generate a first character string. The first character string may be compared to a previous character string associated with a previous password to determine a password similarity metric. The password similarity metric may or may not satisfy at least a distance threshold. Responsive to determining that the password similarity metric does not satisfy the distance threshold, there may be a rejection of the proposed password and a prompt to receive an alternative proposed password during the password reset process.
