Abstract

Most of the research that analyses password security has been developed targeting English-speaking users. In this work, we present a framework for password segmentation, semantic classification, and clustering, in a multilingual context. This research uses natural language processing, statistical and deep learning techniques to obtain and leverage semantic patterns for password definition. Using the methods proposed in this work in password-guessing models produce over a 10% increase with respect to state-of-the-art methods (with a guessing space limited to 500 million predictions) on a dataset of leaked credentials.
