Apparatuses, methods and storage media for user challenge generation are described. In one instance, an apparatus may include an integrated circuit; and logic to be operated by the integrated circuit to: select a polyhedron having a number of vertices that substantially corresponds to a number of users having user-associated information that includes first and a true statement and false statements; associate each edge of the polyhedron with a character; select a face of the polyhedron for a provision of a secret code comprising a sequence of characters associated with edges of the selected face; associate user information with vertices; and generate challenges for the users based on the above actions. The challenges include suggestions for the characters comprising the secret code, e.g., those characters that are associated with edges, which correspond with true statements and false statements. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. |

1. An apparatus for user challenge generation, comprising:
an integrated circuit; and logic to be endowed in or operated by the integrated circuit to:
select an n-polytope having a number of vertices that substantially corresponds to a number of users comprising at least first and second users, having first and second user-associated information, wherein the first and second user information includes respectively first and second true statements and at least first and second false statements;associate each edge of the n-polytope with a character of a set of characters;select a face of the n-polytope for a provision of a secret code, the secret code comprising a sequence of characters associated with edges of the selected face, wherein the order of the characters in a code corresponds to a direction of a loop around the selected face;associate the first user information with a first vertex and the second user information with a second vertex, wherein to associate includes to associate the first and second true statements with first and second edges that correspond to shortest paths from the first and second vertices to the selected face and to associate first and second false statements with at least some of remaining edges connecting the first and second vertices respectively to neighboring vertices; andgenerate first and second challenges for the first and second users, wherein the first and second challenges include suggestions for the characters comprising the secret code, wherein the suggestions include those characters that are associated with edges that correspond to first and second true statements and first and second false statements. |
