Honeyword-based Authentication Techniques for Protecting Passwords: A Survey

This survey reviews twenty-three honeyword (decoy password) based authentication techniques introduced by Juels and Rivest in 2013, which aim to detect server-side threats on password files and notify the administrator when an attacker attempts to exploit a compromised file. The authors compare existing approaches and identify remaining gaps and emergent research opportunities.
