Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Passwords are the most common form of authentication for computer systems, and with good reason: they are simple, intuitive and require no extra device for their use. Unfortunately, users often choose ak passwords that are easy to guess. Various methods of helping users select strong passwords have been deployed, often in the form of requirements for the minimum length and number of character classes to use. Alternatively, a site could modify a user's password in order to make it more secure; strengthening algorithms have been proposed that extend/modify a user-supplied password until achieving sufficient strength. Researchers have suggested that it may be possible to balance password strength with memorability by limiting automated changes to one or two characters while evaluating the generated passwords' strength against known cracking algorithms.  shows that passwords that re strengthened against the best known cracking algorithms are still susceptible to attack, provided the adversary knows the strengthening algorithm.  propose two attacks: (1) by strengthening the data sets with the known algorithm, which increases the percentage of recovered passwords by a factor of 2-5, and (2) by a brute-force attack on the initial passwords and space of possible changes, recovering all passwords produced when a sufficiently ak initial password was suggested. As a result,  find that the proposed strengthening algorithms do not yet satisfy Kerckhoffs's principle.
