What we know
The work addresses honeyword generation: fake passwords that accompany the real password (the "sugarword") in a password-cracking detection system, where a honeychecker distinguishes the real password from the fake ones. The authors describe a honeyword generation method based on a proposed discrete salp swarm algorithm (SSA), a bio-inspired metaheuristic, and present the proposed methodology alongside experimental results compared with previous strategies.
