<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a user authentication system, a user authentication device and a user authentication method, using a password with widely spreading characters, numeral or the like, imparting little burden on a user at authentication, and having small risk that the password is guessed even if operation at the authentication is seen by a third party to maintain high security, in an authentication system. <P>SOLUTION: In this authentication system, when a user requires the authentication from a user authentication screen 301, the user finds the character in a password array 302 sequentially from the first character of the password memorized by the user oneself, a background is operated by an movement key such that a background color of the password character becomes a password color, and operation wherein a selection key is pressed down when the background becomes the password color is repeated. Thereby, because the background color of the character which the user matches can not be known even if the third party can peep at the authentication operation, it can prevent spoofing to be authenticated. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
