Abstract :
In modern society, especially on the Internet, user might have more and more usernames or IDs and passwords, which contains his/her private information. There are too many for user to remember and it is unsafe to write them down on you notebook. To solve this problem, this paper made a design and implementation of Passwords Management System (PMS), by which user can manage their usernames and passwords efficiently. It was made based on Blowfish Algorithm, which is a symmetric block cipher and designed by Bruce Schneider in 1993. Fingerprint Authentication is done using wavelet transform and Gabor filters and fingerprints locally matched using the ICP algorithm.
