Sometimes we often feel a big headache for forgetting important passwords, and the arrival of this new technology makes us no longer have to worry about it. This is a new security technology: Neurosecurity, which combines cryptography and neuroscience to store a password in the human brain. In addition, this password cannot be extracted and known by any second user, and is highly secure.

Just as the brain remembers patterns that it doesn't know in its subconscious, the system develops based on psychological cues. During the test, Stanford University researchers developed a research project into a computer game that requires participants to press the keys to fall on the screen. Each key corresponds to a location on the screen, there are six keys and six positions. The falling objects on the screen look like they appear randomly. The falling order of objects in the game takes 30 as a cycle, and players need to go through 100 such cycles, at least 45 minutes. During the game, the participant's brain has been unconsciously learning these patterns. In the next test, even if the tester himself does not know the order of falling objects, however, they still rely on subconscious buttons to complete the game, and the result is much higher than the success rate of the first game capture.

Two weeks later, even if testers say they have no idea about the order of the game, they are still able to complete the game at a low error rate because their brains have remembered the order of the game. Experiments prove that this method may be used to establish a security plan in which the user's password will be incorporated into a game, users will learn and keep this password in mind by constantly playing this game. Previous studies have shown that such learning methods cannot be recognized by the brain. Therefore, whether users are willing or not, they must use this method to recall their passwords.
