This paper suggests a new scheme where steganography is used to provide a highly secured authentication. The use of character encoding and decoding in an image is used which provides a very high form of security over the web applications. The proposed idea is an alternative to biometrics and RSA tokens. Various attacks pertaining to passwords as brute-force attack, shoulder surfing attack, MIM attack, dictionary attack and password guessing can be prevented. Thus putting a barrier to identity theft, password misuse, loss of confidential information etc., which thereby secures it from hackers.
