A Framework for experience based user authentication technique for minimizing risk of brute-force attacks

Authentication is the process of verifying somebody or something about who he claim he is. The current methods have some drawbacks, which is high cost for special tools, high maintenances, low reliability, lost or broken by user�s poor handling and needs for special expertise in operating the system...

User registration is done during the sign up, whereas user authentication is carried out during the sign in process. Given the number of mountains around the world that is nearly a million in total, and by allowing user to have any combination of mountain, the risk of brute force attack can be minimize significantly.
