MODULES DESCRIPTION:
1. Authentication Module:
 To login to Home page we need to provide a password by selecting images.
These images are retrieved from database dynamically .In database each
character has assigned a particular image.
 User has to select the exact image. Only a valid user can identify the exact
image. If a user doesn’t select a exact image then it returns back to the previous
page, which shows that the user is an invalid user.
1. Remote Handling:
The Remote Handling module handles the terminal operations such as shutdown,
restart and logoff, by specifying the IP address of the remote system.

2. Remote File Searching: In order to search the required files, the administrator has to
mention the type of file he wanted to search.
3. Privileges: The Privileges module mainly handles the permissions of the files. The file
permissions include read, write and hidden permissions.
4. Remote System Configuration: The administrator using this module can specify the
configuration of a particular system. These configuration details can be obtained by specifying
the IP address of the remote system.
5 .Remote Process Management: The administrator using this module can determine the
processes that are currently running in a particular system, present in a network.

INTRODUCTION
The main aim of this project is to provide Graphical Password Authentication to
access Application.
PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT :
The purpose of the project is to provide provides authentication using images to access the
Application. Images will be retrieved from database dynamically .User has to click on the
exact images to access application. This system implements Remote control at the
application level. This project controls the remote systems by performing the terminal
operations like shutdown, checking files and its permissions, etc
EXISTING SYSTEM & DISADVANTAGES:
 Is a manual system and maintaining records is difficult.
 Complexity in Management of Hotels and Its Branches.
 The existing system may not provide security to Data Base.
 Maintain employees, in charges and general managers details are risky tasks.
 This system is not providing secure registration and profile management of all the
users properly.
 Maintaining inventory details are inefficiently.
 Maintaining customer orders are poor.
PROPOSED SYSTEM & ITS DISADVANTAGES:
The proposed system provides facilities for user registration and allows users to create
their personalized chat rooms. Users can also chat in public rooms as well. A user
becomes the owner of the rooms one creates. As a moderator the user can control the
other users who log on to the same room.

STUDY OF THE SYSTEM:
To provide flexibility to the users, the interfaces have been developed that are accessible through
a browser. The GUI’S at the top level have been categorized as
1. Administrative user interface
2. The operational or generic user interface
The ‘administrative user interface’ concentrates on the consistent information that is practically,
part of the organizational activities and which needs proper authentication for the data collection.
These interfaces help the administrators with all the transactional states like Data insertion, Data
deletion and Date updation along with the extensive data search capabilities.
The ‘operational or generic user interface’ helps the end users of the system in transactions
through the existing data and required services. The operational user interface also helps the
ordinary users in managing their own information in a customized manner as per the included
flexibilities
INPUT & OUTPOUT REPRESENTETION:
Input design is a part of overall system design. The main objective during the input design is as
given below:
 To produce a cost-effective method of input.
 To achieve the highest possible level of accuracy.
 To ensure that the input is acceptable and understood by the user.
INPUT STAGES:
The main input stages can be listed as below:
9
 Data recording
 Data transcription
 Data conversion
 Data verification
 Data control
 Data transmission
 Data validation
 Data correction
INPUT TYPES:
It is necessary to determine the various types of inputs. Inputs can be categorized as follows:
 External inputs, which are prime inputs for the system.
 Internal inputs, which are user communications with the system.
 Operational, which are computer department’s communications to the system?
 Interactive, which are inputs entered during a dialogue.

INPUT MEDIA:
At this stage choice has to be made about the input media. To conclude about the input media
consideration has to be given to;
 Type of input
 Flexibility of format
 Speed
 Accuracy
 Verification methods
 Rejection rates
 Ease of correction
 Storage and handling requirements
10
 Security
 Easy to use
 Portability
Keeping in view the above description of the input types and input media, it can be said that
most of the inputs are of the form of internal and interactive.
As input data is to be the directly keyed in by the user, the keyboard can be considered to be the
most suitable input device.
OUTPUT DESIGN:
In general are:
 External Outputs whose destination is outside the organization.
 Internal Outputs whose destination is with in organization and they are the User’s main
interface with the computer. Outputs from computer systems are required primarily to
communicate the results of processing to users. They are also used to provide a
permanent copy of the results for later consultation. The various types of outputs
 Operational outputs whose use is purely with in the computer department.
 Interface outputs, which involve the user in communicating directly with the system.
OUTPUT DEFINITION:
The outputs should be defined in terms of the following points:
 Type of the output
 Content of the output
 Format of the output
 Location of the output
 Frequency of the output
 Volume of the output
 Sequence of the output
11
It is not always desirable to print or display data as it is held on a computer. It should be decided
as which form of the output is the most suitable.
For Example
 Will decimal points need to be inserted
 Should leading zeros be suppressed.
OUTPUT MEDIA:
In the next stage it is to be decided that which medium is the most appropriate for the output. The
main considerations when deciding about the output media are:
 The suitability for the device to the particular application.
 The need for a hard copy.
 The response time required.
 The location of the users
 The software and hardware available.
Keeping in view the above description the project is to have outputs mainly coming
under the category of internal outputs. The main outputs desired according to the requirement
specification are: The outputs were needed to be generated as a hard copy and as well as queries
to be viewed on the screen.
Keeping in view these outputs, the format for the output is taken from the outputs, which are
currently being obtained after manual processing. The standard printer is to be used as output
media for hard copies.

 Testing
 Maintenance
Requirements Gathering stage:
The requirements gathering process takes as its input the goals identified in the high-level
requirements section of the project plan. Each goal will be refined into a set of one or more
requirements. These requirements define the major functions of the intended application, define
operational data areas and reference data areas, and define the initial data entities. Major
functions include critical processes to be managed, as well as mission critical inputs, outputs and
reports. A user class hierarchy is developed and associated with these major functions, data
areas, and data entities. Each of these definitions is termed a Requirement. Requirements are
identified by unique requirement identifiers and, at minimum, contain a requirement title and
textual description.
14
These requirements are fully described in the primary deliverables for this stage: the
Requirements Document and the Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM). The requirements
document contains complete descriptions of each requirement, including diagrams and
references to external documents as necessary. Note that detailed listings of database tables and
fields are not included in the requirements document.
The title of each requirement is also placed into the first version of the RTM, along with
the title of each goal from the project plan. The purpose of the RTM is to show that the product
components developed during each stage of the software development lifecycle are formally
connected to the components developed in prior stages.
In the requirements stage, the RTM consists of a list of high-level requirements, or goals,
by title, with a listing of associated requirements for each goal, listed by requirement title. In this
hierarchical listing, the RTM shows that each requirement developed during this stage is
formally linked to a specific product goal. In this format, each requirement can be traced to a
specific product goal, hence the term requirements traceability.
The outputs of the requirements definition stage include the requirements document, the
RTM, and an updated project plan.
 Feasibility study is all about identification of problems in a project.
 No. of staff required to handle a project is represented as Team Formation, in this case only
modules are individual tasks will be assigned to employees who are working for that project.
 Project Specifications are all about representing of various possible inputs submitting to the
server and corresponding outputs along with reports maintained by administrator
Analysis Stage:
The planning stage establishes a bird's eye view of the intended software product, and uses this
to establish the basic project structure, evaluate feasibility and risks associated with the project,
and describe appropriate management and technical approaches.
15
The most critical section of the project plan is a listing of high-level product requirements, also
referred to as goals. All of the software product requirements to be developed during the
requirements definition stage flow from one or more of these goals. The minimum information
for each goal consists of a title and textual description, although additional information and
references to external documents may be included. The outputs of the project planning stage are
the configuration management plan, the quality assurance plan, and the project plan and
schedule, with a detailed listing of scheduled activities for the upcoming Requirements stage,
and high level estimates of effort for the out stages.
Designing Stage: The design stage takes as its initial input the requirements identified in the
approved requirements document. For each requirement, a set of one or more design elements
will be produced as a result of interviews, workshops, and/or prototype efforts. Design elements
describe the desired software features in detail, and generally include functional hierarchy
diagrams, screen layout diagrams, tables of business rules, business process diagrams, pseudo
code, and a complete entity-relationship diagram with a full data dictionary. These design
elements are intended to describe the software in sufficient detail that skilled programmers may
develop the software with minimal additional input.
16
When the design document is finalized and accepted, the RTM is updated to show that each
design element is formally associated with a specific requirement. The outputs of the design
stage are the design document, an updated RTM, and an updated project plan.
Development (Coding) Stage:
The development stage takes as its primary input the design elements described in the
approved design document.
For each design element, a set of one or more software artifacts will be produced. Software
artifacts include but are not limited to menus, dialogs, data management forms, data reporting
formats, and specialized procedures and functions.
Appropriate test cases will be developed for each set of functionally related software
artifacts, and an online help system will be developed to guide users in their interactions with the
software.
17
The RTM will be updated to show that each developed artifact is linked to a specific design
element, and that each developed artifact has one or more corresponding test case items. At this
point, the RTM is in its final configuration. The outputs of the development stage include a fully
functional set of software that satisfies the requirements and design elements previously
documented, an online help system that describes the operation of the software, an
implementation map that identifies the primary code entry points for all major system functions,
a test plan that describes the test cases to be used to validate the correctness and completeness of
the software, an updated RTM, and an updated project plan.
Integration & Test Stage:
During the integration and test stage, the software artifacts, online help, and test data are
migrated from the development environment to a separate test environment. At this point, all test
cases are run to verify the correctness and completeness of the software. Successful execution of
the test suite confirms a robust and complete migration capability. During this stage, reference
data is finalized for production use and production users are identified and linked to their
18
appropriate roles. The final reference data (or links to reference data source files) and production
user list are compiled into the Production Initiation Plan.
The outputs of the integration and test stage include an integrated set of software, an online
help system, an implementation map, a production initiation plan that describes reference data
and production users, an acceptance plan which contains the final suite of test cases, and an
updated project plan.
 Installation & Acceptance Test:
During the installation and acceptance stage, the software artifacts, online help, and initial
production data are loaded onto the production server. At this point, all test cases are run to
verify the correctness and completeness of the software. Successful execution of the test suite is
a prerequisite to acceptance of the software by the customer.
19
After customer personnel have verified that the initial production data load is correct and
the test suite has been executed with satisfactory results, the customer formally accepts the
delivery of the software.
The primary outputs of the installation and acceptance stage include a production
application, a completed acceptance test suite, and a memorandum of customer acceptance of the
software. Finally, the PDR enters the last of the actual labor data into the project schedule and
locks the project as a permanent project record. At this point the PDR "locks" the project by
archiving all software items, the implementation map, the source code, and the documentation
for future reference.
Maintenance:
Outer rectangle represents maintenance of a project, Maintenance team will start with
requirement study, understanding of documentation later employees will be assigned work and
they will under go training on that particular assigned category.
20
For this life cycle there is no end, it will be continued so on like an umbrella (no ending point to
umbrella sticks).

3.2 USER REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION
Feasibility Study:
Preliminary investigation examines project feasibility, the likelihood the system will be useful to
the organization. The main objective of the feasibility study is to test the Technical, Operational
and Economical feasibility for adding new modules and debugging old running system. All
systems are feasible if they are given unlimited resources and infinite time. There are aspects in
the feasibility study portion of the preliminary investigation:
 Technical Feasibility
 Operation Feasibility
 Economical Feasibility
3.1 TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY:
The technical issue usually raised during the feasibility stage of the investigation includes
the following:
 Does the necessary technology exist to do what is suggested?
 Do the proposed equipments have the technical capacity to hold the data required to use
the new system?
 Will the proposed system provide adequate response to inquiries, regardless of the
number or location of users?
 Can the system be upgraded if developed?
Are there technical guarantees of accuracy, reliability, ease of access and data security?
3.2 OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY:
User-friendly:
Customer will use the forms for their various transactions i.e. for adding new routes, viewing
the routes details. Also the Customer wants the reports to view the various transactions based
on the constraints. Theses forms and reports are generated as user-friendly to the Client.
23
Reliability:
The package wills pick-up current transactions on line. Regarding the old transactions, User
will enter them in to the system.
Security:
The web server and database server should be protected from hacking, virus etc.
Portability:
The application will be developed using standard open source software (Except Oracle) like
Java, tomcat web server, Internet Explorer Browser etc these software will work both on
Windows and Linux o/s. Hence portability problems will not arise.
Availability:
This software will be available always.
Maintainability:
The system called the ewheelz uses the 2-tier architecture. The 1st tier is the GUI, which is
said to be front-end and the 2nd tier is the database, which uses My-Sql, which is the back-
end. The front-end can be run on different systems (clients). The database will be running at
the server. Users access these forms by using the user-ids and the passwords.
3.3 ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY:
The computerized system takes care of the present existing system’s data flow and
procedures completely and should generate all the reports of the manual system besides a
host of other management reports. It should be built as a web based application with separate
web server and database server. This is required as the activities are spread through out the
organization customer wants a centralized database. Further some of the linked transactions
24
take place in different locations. Open source software like TOMCAT, JAVA, Mysql and
Linux is used to minimize the cost for the Customer.
4.1 FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION:
MODULES:
1. Authentication Module
2. Remote Handling
3. Remote File Searching
4. Privileges
5. Remote Process Management
MODULES DESCRIPTION:
1. Authentication Module:
 To login to Home page we need to provide a password by selecting images. These
images are retrieved from database dynamically .In database each character has
assigned a particular image.
 User has to select the exact image. Only a valid user can identify the exact image.
If a user doesn’t select a exact image then it returns back to the previous page,
which shows that the user is an invalid user.
2. Remote Handling:
The Remote Handling module handles the terminal operations such as shutdown, restart
and logoff, by specifying the IP address of the remote system.
3. Remote File Searching:
In order to search the required files, the administrator has to mention the type of file he
wanted to search.
3. Privileges:
25
The Privileges module mainly handles the permissions of the files. The file permissions
include read, write and hidden permissions
5. Remote System Configuration:
The administrator using this module can specify the configuration of a particular system.
These configuration details can be obtained by specifying the IP address of the remote
system.
6. Remote Process Management:
This module can determine the processes that are currently running in a particular system,
administrator using present in a network.
3.3 SYSTEM REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATIONS
4.2 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS:
Performance is measured in terms of the output provided by the application. Requirement
specification plays an important part in the analysis of a system. Only when the requirement
specifications are properly given, it is possible to design a system, which will fit into required
environment. It rests largely with the users of the existing system to give the requirement
specifications because they are the people who finally use the system.
This is because the requirements have to be known during the initial stages so that the system
can be designed according to those requirements. It is very difficult to change the system once it
has been designed and on the other hand designing a system, which does not cater to the
requirements of the user, is of no use.
The requirement specification for any system can be broadly stated as given below:
The system should be able to interface with the existing system
26
 The system should be accurate
 The system should be better than the existing system
The existing system is completely dependent on the user to perform all the duties.

Systems design:
Systems design is the process or art of defining the architecture, components, modules,
interfaces, and data for a system to satisfy specified requirements. One could see it as the
application of systems theory to product development. There is some overlap and synergy with
the disciplines of systems analysis, systems architecture and systems engineering.
5.2 UML DIAGRAMS:
Unified Modeling Language:
1The Unified Modeling Language allows the software engineer to express an analysis model
using the modeling notation that is governed by a set of syntactic semantic and pragmatic rules.
A UML system is represented using five different views that describe the system from distinctly
different perspective. Each view is defined by a set of diagram, which is as follows.
 User Model View:
 This view represents the system from the users perspective.
 The analysis representation describes a usage scenario from the end-users
perspective.
 Structural model view:
 In this model the data and functionality are arrived from inside the
system.
 This model view models the static structures.
 Behavioral Model View:
It represents the dynamic of behavioral as parts of the system, depicting the
interactions of collection between various structural elements described in the
user model and structural model view.
 Implementation Model View:
In this the structural and behavioral as parts of the system are represented as they
are to be built.
29
 Environmental Model View:
In this the structural and behavioral aspects of the environment in which the
system is to be implemented are represented.
UML is specifically constructed through two different domains they are:
 UML Analysis modeling, this focuses on the user model and structural model views of
the system.
 UML design modeling, which focuses on the behavioral modeling, implementation
modeling and environmental model views.
Use case Diagrams represent the functionality of the system from a user’s point of view. Use
cases are used during requirements elicitation and analysis to represent the functionality of the
system. Use cases focus on the behavior of the system from external point of view.
Actors are external entities that interact with the system. Examples of actors include users like
administrator, bank customer …etc., or another system like central database.

5.5. NORMALIZATION:
A Database is a collection of interrelated data stored with a minimum of redundancy to serve
many applications. The database design is used to group data into a number of tables and
minimizes the artificiality embedded in using separate files. The tables are organized to:
Reduced duplication of data.
Simplify functions like adding, deleting, modifying data etc..,
Retrieving data
Clarity and ease of use
More information at low cost
Normalization:
Normalization is built around the concept of normal forms. A relation is said to be
in a particular normal form if it satisfies a certain specified set of constraints on the kind of
functional dependencies that could be associated with the relation. The normal forms are
used to ensure that various types of anomalies and inconsistencies are not introduced into the
database.
First Normal Form:
A relation R is in first normal form if and only if all underlying domains contained atomic
values only.
Second Normal Form:
A relation R is said to be in second normal form if and only if it is in first normal form and
every non-key attribute is fully dependent on the primary key.
Third Normal Form:
A relation R is said to be in third normal form if and only if it is in second normal form
and every non key attribute is non transitively depend on the primary key.

JAVA
About Java:
Initially the language was called as “oak” but it was renamed as “java” in 1995.The primary
motivation of this language was the need for a platform-independent(i.e. architecture
neutral)language that could be used to create software to be embedded in various consumer
electronic devices.
Java is a programmer’s language
Java is cohesive and consistent
Except for those constraint imposed by the Internet environment. Java gives the
programmer, full control
Finally Java is to Internet Programming where c was to System Programming.
Importance of Java to the Internet:
Java has had a profound effect on the Internet. This is because; java expands the Universe of
objects that can move about freely in Cyberspace. In a network, two categories of objects are
transmitted between the server and the personal computer. They are passive information and
Dynamic active programs. in the areas of Security and probability. But Java addresses these
concerns and by doing so, has opened the door to an exciting new form of program called the
Applet.
Applications and applets: An application is a program that runs on our Computer under
the operating system of that computer. It is more or less like one creating using C or C++
.Java’s ability to create Applets makes it important. An Applet I san application, designed to
be transmitted over the Internet and executed by a Java-compatible web browser. An applet I
actually a tiny Java program, dynamically downloaded across the network, just like an image.
But the difference is, it is an intelligent program, not just a media file. It can be react to the
user input and dynamically change.
Java Architecture: Java architecture provides a portable, robust, high performing
environment for development. Java provides portability by compiling the byte codes for the
54
Java Virtual Machine, which is then interpreted on each platform by the run-time
environment. Java is a dynamic system, able to load code when needed from a machine in the
same room or across the planet.
Compilation of code:
When you compile the code, the Java compiler creates machine code (called byte code)for a
hypothetical machine called Java Virtual Machine(JVM). The JVM is supposed t executed
the byte code. The JVM is created for the overcoming the issue of probability. The code is
written and compiled for one machine and interpreted on all machines .This machine is
called Java Virtual Machine.
Compiling and interpreting java source code:
During run-time the Java interpreter tricks the byte code file into thinking that it is running
on a Java Virtual Machine. In reality this could be an Intel Pentium windows 95 or sun
SPARCstation running Solaris or Apple Macintosh running system and all could receive
code from any computer through internet and run the Applets.

Simple:
Java was designed to be easy for the Professional programmer to learn and to use effectively.
If you are an experienced C++ Programmer. Learning Java will oriented features of C++ .
Most of the confusing concepts from C++ are either left out of Java or implemented in a
cleaner, more approachable manner. In Java there are a small number of clearly defined ways
to accomplish a given task.
Object oriented:
Java was not designed to be source-code compatible with any other language. This allowed
the Java team the freedom to design with a blank state. One outcome of this was a clean
usable, pragmatic approach to objects. The object model in Java is simple and easy to extend,
while simple types, such as integers, are kept as high-performance non-objects.
Robust:
The multi-platform environment of the web places extraordinary demands on a program,
because the program must execute reliably in a variety of systems. The ability to create
robust programs. Was given a high priority in the design of Java. Java is strictly typed
language; it checks your code at compile time and runtime.
Java virtually eliminates the problems of memory management and deal location, which is
completely automatic. In a well-written Java program, all run-time errors can and should be
managed by your program.
Servlets/JSP
A Servlet Is a generic server extension or a Java class that can be loaded
dynamically to expand the functionality of a server. Servlets are commonly used with web
servers, Where they can take the place CGI scripts.
56
A servlet is similar to proprietary server extension, except that it runs inside a Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) on the server, so it is safe and portable.Servlets operate solely within the
domain of the server.
Unlike CGI and Fast CGI, which use multiple processes to handle separate program or
separate requests, separate threads within web server process handle all servlets. This means
that servlets are all efficient and scalable.
Servlets are portable; both across operating systems and also across web servers. Java
Servlets offer the best possible platform for web application development.
Servlets are used as replacement for CGI scripts on a web server, they can extend any sort of
server such as a mail server that allows servelts t extend its functionality perhaps by
performing a virus scan on all attached documents or handling mail filtering tasks.
Servlets provide a Java-based solution used to address the problems currently associated with
doing server-side programming including inextensible scripting solutions platform-specific
API’s and incomplete interface.
Servlets are objects that conform to a specific interface that can be plugged into a Java-based
server.Servlets are to the server-side what applets are to the server-side what applets are to
the client-side-object byte codes that can be dynamically loaded off the net. They differ form
applets in than they are faceless objects(with out graphics or a GUI component).They serve
as platform independent, dynamically loadable,plugable helper byte code objects on the
server side that can be used to dynamically extend server-side functionality. For example an
HTTP servlet can be used to generate dynamic HTML content when you use servlets to do
dynamic content you get the following advantages:
They’re faster and cleaner then CGI scripts
They use a standard API( the servlet API)
They provide all the advantages of Java (run on a variety of servers without needing
to be rewritten)
57
Attractiveness of Servlets:
They are many features of servlets that make them easy and attractive to tuse these
include:
Easily configure using the GUI-based Admin tool]
Can be Loaded and Invoked from a local disk or remotely across the network.
Can be linked together or chained, so that on servlet can call another servlet, or
several servlets in sequence.
Can be called dynamically from with in HTML, pages using server-side include-
tags.
Are secure-even when downloading across the network, the servlet security model
and servlet and box protect your system from unfriendly behavior.,
Advantages of the servlet API:
One of the great advantages of the servlet API is protocol independent. It assumes
nothing about:
The protocol being used to transmit on the net
How it is loaded
The server environment it will be running in
These quantities are important, because it allows the Servlet API to be embedded
in many different kinds of servers.There are other advantages to the servelt API as
well These include:
It’s extensible-you can inherit all your functionality from the base classes made
available to you
It’s simple small, and easy to use.
58
Features of Servlets:
Servlets are persistent.Servlet are loaded only by the web server and can maintain
services between requests.
Servlets are fast. Since servlets only need to be lloaded once, they offer much
better performance over their CGI counterparts.
Servlets are platform independent.
Servlets are extensible Java is a robust, object-oriented programming language,
which easily can be extended to suit your needs.
Servlets are secure
Servlets are used with a variety of client.
Servlets are classes and interfaces from tow packages,javax .servlet and javax.servlet.http.
The java.servlet package contains classes t support generic, protocol-independent
servlets.The classes in the javax.servelt.http package To and HTTP specific functionality
extend these classes
Every servlet must implement the javax.servelt interface.Most servlets implement it by
extending one of two classes.javax.servlet.GenericServlet or javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.A
protocol-independent servlet should subclass Generic-Servlet.while an Http servlet should
subclass HttpServlet, which is itself a subclass of Generic-servlet with added HTTP-specific
functionality.
Unlike a java program, a servlet does not have a main() method,Instead the server in the
process of handling requests invoke certain methods of a servlet.Each time the server
dispatches a request to a servlet, it invokes the servelts Service() method,
A generic servlet should override its service() method to handle requests as appropriate for
the servlet.The service() accepts two parameters a request object and a response object .The
request object tells the servlet about the request, while the response object is used to return a
response.
59
In Contrast an Http servlet usually does not override the service() method instead it overrides
doGet() to handle GET requests and doPost() to handle Post requests. An Http servlet can
override either or both of these modules the service() method of HttpServlet handles the
setup and dispatching to all the doXXX() methods.which iswhy it usually should not be
overridden. The remainders in the javax.servlet and javax.servlet.http.package are largely
support classes .The ServletRequest and ServletResponse classes in javax.servlet provide
access to generic server requests and responses while HttpServletRequest and
HttpServletResponse classes in javax.servlet provide access to generic server requests and
responses while HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse in javax.servlet.http provide
access a HTTP requests and responses . The javax.servlet.http provide contains an
HttpSession class that provides built-in session tracking functionality and Cookie class that
allows quickly setup and processing HttpCookies.
Loading Servlets: Servlets can be loaded from their places. From a directory that is on
the CLASSPATH. The CLASSPATH of the JavaWebServer includes service root/classes/,
which is where the system classes reside
From the <SERVICE_ROOT/servlets/directory,this is not in the server’s classpath. A class
loader is used to create servlets form this directory new servlets can be added-existing
servlets can be recompiled and the server will notice these changes. From a remote
location.For this a code base like http://nine.eng/classes/foo/ is required in addtion to the
servlet’s class name.Refer to the admin Gui docs on servlet section to see how to set this up.
Loading Remote Servlets:
Remote servlets can be loaded by:
Configuring the admin Tool to setup automatic loading of remote servlets.
Selectiong up server side include tags in .html files
Defining a filter chain Configuration
60
Invoking Servlets:
A servlet invoker is a servlet that invokes the “server” method on a named servlet.If the
servlet is not loaded in the server,then the invoker first loades the servlet(either form local
disk or from the network) and the then invokes the “service” method.Also like applets,local
servlets in the server can be identified by just the class name.In other words, if a servlet name
is not absolute.it is treated as local.
A Client can Invoke Servlets in the Following Ways:
The client can ask for a document that is served by the servlet.
The client(browser) can invoke the servlet directly using a URL, once it has been
mapped using the SERVLET ALIASES Section of the admin GUI
The servlet can be invoked through server side include tags.
The servlet can be invoked by placing it in the servlets/directory
The servlet can be invoked by using it in a filter chain
The Servlet Life Cycle:-
The Servlet life cycle is one of the most exciting features of Servlets.This life cycle is a
powerful hybrid of the life cycles used in CGI programming and lower-level NSAPI and
ISAPI programming.
The servlet life cycle allows servlet engines to address both the performance and resource
problems of CGI and the security concents of low level server API programming.
Servlet life cycle is highly flexible Servers hava significant leeway in how they choose to
support servlets.The only hard and fast rule is that a servlet engine must confor to the
following life cycle contact:
Create and initialize the servlets
Handle zero or more service from clients
Destroy the servlet and then garbage Collects it.
61
It’s perfectly legal for a servlet t be loaded, created an initialzed in its own JVM,only to be
destroyed an dgarbage collected without hancdling any clientrequest or after handling just
one request
The most common and most sensible life cycle implemntations for HTTP servelts are:
Single java virtual machine and astatine persistence.
Init and Destroy:-
Just like Applets servlets can define init() and destroy() methods, A servlets
init(ServiceConfig) method is called by the server immediately after the server constructs the
servlet’s instance.Depanding on the server and its configuration, this can be at any of these
times
When the server states
When the servlet is first requested, just before the service() method is invoked
At the request of the server administrator
In any case, nit() is guaranteed to be called before the servlet handles its first request
The init() method is typically used to perform servlet initialization creating or loading objects
that are used by the servlet in handling of its request. In order to providing a new servlet any
information about itself and its environment, a server has to call a servelts init() method and
pass an object that implement the ServletConfig interface.
This ServletConfig object supplies a servlet with information about its initialization
parameters.These parameters are given to the servlets and are not associated with any single
request.They can specify initial values, such as where a counter should begin counting, or
default values, perhaps a template to use when not specified by the request,
The server calls a servlet’s destroy() method when the servlet is about to be unloaded. In the
destroy() method, a servlet should free any resources it has acquired that will not be garbage
collected. The destroy() method also gives a servlet a chance to write out its unsaved. cached
information or any persistent information that should be read during the next call to init().
62
Session Tracking:
HTTP is a stateless protocol, it provides no way for a server to recognize that a sequence of
requests is all from the same client. This causes a problem for application such as shopping
cart applications. Even in chat application server can’t know exactly who’s making a request
of several clients.
The solution for this is for client to introduce itself as it makes each request, Each clients
needs to provide a unique identifier that lets the server identify it, or it needs to give some
information that the server can use to properly handle the request, There are several ways to
send this introductory information with each request Such as:
USER AUTHORIZATION:
One way to perform session tracking is to leverage the information that comes with
User authorization. When a web server restricts access to some of its resources to only those
clients that log in using a recognized username and password. After the client logs in, the
username is available to a servlet through getRemoteUser () we can use the username to track
the session. Once a user has logged in, the browser remembers her username and resends the
name and password as the user views new pages on the site. A servlet can identify the user
through her username and they’re by track her session.
The biggest advantage of using user authorization to perform session tracking is that it’s
easy to implement. Simply tell the protect a set of pages, and use getRemoteUser() to identify
each client.Another advantage is that the technique works even when the user accesses your
site form or exists her browser before coming back.
The biggest disadvantage of user authrization is that it requires each user to register for an
account and then log in in each time the starts visiting your site. Most users will tolerate
registering and lagging in as a necessary evil when they are accessing sensitive information,
but its all overkill for simple session tracking.Other problem with user authorization is that a
user cannot simultaneously maintain more than one session at the same site.
63
Hidden Form Fields:
One way to support anonymous session tracking is to use hidden from fields. As the name
implies, these are fields added to an HTML, form that are not displayed in the client’s
browser, They are sent back to the server when the form that contains them is submitted.
In a sense, hidden form fields define constant variables for a form. To a servlet receiving a
submitted form, there is no difference between a hidden fields and a visible filed.
As more and more information is associated with a clients session . It can become
burdensome to pass it all using hidden form fields. In these situations it’s possible to pass on
just a unique session ID that identifies as particular clients session.
That session ID can be associated with complete information about its session that is stored
on the server.
The advantage of hidden form fields is their ubiquity and support for anonymity. Hidden
fields are supported in all the popular browsers, they demand on special server requirements,
and they can be used with clients that haven’t registered or logged in.
The major disadvantage with this technique, however is that works only for a sequence of
dynamically generated forms, The technique breaks down immediately with static
documents, emailed documents book marked documents and browser shutdowns.
URL Rewriting:
URL rewriting is another way to support anonymous session tracking, With URL
rewriting every local URL the user might click on is dynamically modified. or rewritten, to
include extra, information. The extra information can be in the deform of extra path
information, added parameters, or some custom, server-specific.URL change. Due to the
limited space available in rewriting a URL, the extra information is usually limited to a
unique session.
Each rewriting technique has its own advantage and disadvantage
Using extra path information works on all servers, and it works as a target for forms that use
both the Get and Post methods. It does not work well if the servlet has to use the extra path
information as true path information
64
The advantages and disadvantages of URL.rewriting closely match those of hidden form
fileds,The major difference is that URL rewriting works for all dynamically created
documents, such as the Help servlet, not just forms. With the right server support, custom
URL rewriting can even work for static documents.
Persistent Cookies:
A fourth technique to perform session tracking involves persistent cookies. A cookie is a bit
of information. sent by a web server to a browser that can later be read back form that
browser. When a browser receives a cookie, it saves the cookie and there after sends the
cookie back to the server each time it accesses a page on that server, subject to certain rules.
Because a cookie’s value can uniquely identify a client, cookies are often used for session
tracking.
Persistent cookies offer an elegant, efficient easy way to implement session tracking. Cookies
provide as automatic an introduction for each request as we could hope for. For each request,
a cookie can automatically provide a client’s session ID or perhaps a list of clients
performance. The ability to customize cookies gives them extra power and versatility.
The biggest problem with cookies is that browsers don’t always accept cookies sometimes
this is because the browser doesn’t support cookies. More often its because
The browser doesn’t support cookies. More often its because the user has specifically
configured the browser to refuse cookies.
The power of serves: The power of servlets is nothing but the advantages of servlets
over other approaches, which include portability, power, efficiency, endurance, safety
elegance, integration, extensibility and flexibility.
Portability:
As servlets are written in java and conform to a well defined and widely accepted
API.they are highly portable across operating systems and across server implementation
We can develop a servlet on a windows NT machine running the java web server and later
deploy it effortlessly on a high-end Unix server running apache. With servlets we can really
“write once, serve every where”
65
Servlet portability is not the stumbling block it so often is with applets, for two reasons
First,Servlet portability is not mandatory i.e. servlets has to work only on server machines
that we are using for development and deployment
Second, servlets avoid the most error-prone and inconstancy implemented portion of the java
languages.
Power:
Servlets can harness the full power of the core java. API’s: such as Networking and Url
access, multithreading, image manipulation, data compression, data base connectivity,
internationalization, remote method invocation(RMI) CORBA connectivity, and object
serialization, among others,
Efficiency And Endurance:
Servlet invocation is highly efficient, Once a servlet is loaded it generally remains in the
server’s memory as a single object instance, There after the server invokes the servelt to
handle a request using a simple, light weighted method invocation .Unlike the CGI, there’s
no process to spawn or interpreter to invoke, so the servlet can begin handling the request
almost immediately, Multiple, concurrent requests are handled the request almost
immediately. Multiple, concurrent requests are handled by separate threads, so servlets are
highly scalable.
Servlets in general are enduring objects. Because a servlets stays in the server’s memory as a
single object instance. it automatically maintains its state and can hold onto external
resources, such as database connections.
Safety:
Servlets support safe programming practices on a number of levels. As they are written in
java,servlets inherit the strong type safety of the java language. In addition the servlet API is
implemented to be type safe. Java’s automatic garbage collection and lack of pointers mean
that servlets are generally safe from memory management problems like dangling pointers
invalid pointer references and memory leaks.
66
Servlets can handle errors safely, due to java’s exception – handling mechanism. If a
servlet divides by zero or performs some illegal operations, it throws an exception that can be
safely caught and handled by the server.
A server can further protect itself from servlets through the use of java security
manager.A server can execute its servlets under the watch of a strict security manager.
Elegance:
The elegance of the servlet code is striking .Servlet code is clean, object oriented modular
and amazingly simple one reason for this simplicity is the served API itself. Which includes
methods and classes to handle many of the routine chores of servlet development. Even
advanced to operations like cookie handling and session tracking tracking are abstracted int
convenient classes.
Integration:
Servlets are tightly integrated with the server. This integration allows a servlet to
cooperate with the server in two ways . for e.g.: a servlet can use the server to translate file
paths, perform logging, check authorization, perform MIME type mapping and in some cases
even add users to the server’s user database.
Extensibility and Flexibility:
The servlet API is designed to be easily extensible. As it stands today the API includes
classes that are optimized for HTTP servlets.But later it can be extended and optimized for
another type of servlets.It is also possible that its support for HTTP servlets could be further
enhanced.
Servlets are also quite flexible, Sun also introduced java server pages. which offer a way to
write snippets of servlet code directly with in a static HTML page using syntax similar to
Microsoft’s Active server pages(ASP)
67
JDBC
What is JDBC?
In any relational database one can write a single program using the JDBC API and the JDBC
is a Java Api for executing SQL Statements(As a point of interest JDBC is trademarked name
and is not an acronym; nevertheless, Jdbc is often thought of as standing for Java Database
Connectivity. It consists of a set of classes and interfaces written in the Java Programming
language. JDBC provides a standard API for tool/database developers and makes it possible
to write database applications using a pure Java API. Using JDBC, it is easy to send SQL
statements to virtually program will be able to send SQL .statements to the appropriate
database. The Combination of Java and JDBC lets a programmer writes it once and run it
anywhere.
What Does JDBC Do?
Simply put, JDBC makes it possible to do three things
o Establish a connection with a database
o Send SQL statements
o Process the results
o JDBC Driver Types
o The JDBC drivers that we are aware of this time fit into one of four categories
o JDBC-ODBC Bridge plus ODBC driver
o Native-API party-java driver
o JDBC-Net pure java driver
o Native-protocol pure Java driver
An individual database system is accessed via a specific JDBC driver that implements the
java.sql.Driver interface. Drivers exist for nearly all-popular RDBMS systems, through few
are available for free. Sun bundles a free JDBC-ODBC bridge driver with the JDK to allow
access to a standard ODBC,data sources, such as a Microsoft Access database, Sun advises
68
against using the bridge driver for anything other than development and very limited
development.
JDBC drivers are available for most database platforms, from a number of vendors and
in a number of different flavours. There are four driver categories
Type 01-JDBC-ODBC Bridge Driver:
Type 01 drivers use a bridge technology to connect a java client to an ODBC
database service. Sun’s JDBC-ODBC bridge is the most common type 01 driver. These
drivers implemented using native code.
Type 02-Native-API party-java Driver:
Type 02 drivers wrap a thin layer of java around database-specific native code libraries for
Oracle databases, the native code libraries might be based on the OCI(Oracle call Interface)
libraries, which were originally designed for c/c++ programmers, Because type-02 drivers
are implemented using native code. in some cases they have better performance than their
all-java counter parts. They add an element of risk, however, because a defect in a driver’s
native code section can crash the entire server
Type 03-Net-Protocol All-Java Driver:
Type 03 drivers communicate via a generic network protocol to a piece of custom
middleware. The middleware component might use any type of driver to provide the actual
database access. These drivers are all java, which makes them useful for applet deployment
and safe for servlet deployment
Type-04-native-protocol All-java Driver:
Type o4 drivers are the most direct of the lot. Written entirely in java, Type 04 drivers
understand database-specific networking. protocols and can access the database directly
without any additional software
69
JDBC-ODBC Bridge:
If possible use a Pure Java JDBC driver instead of the Bridge and an ODBC driver. This
completely eliminates the client configuration required by ODBC.It also eliminates the potential
that the Java VM could be corrupted by an error in the native code brought in by the Bridge(that
is, the Bridge native library, the ODBC driver manager library, library, the ODBC driver library,
and the database client library)
WHAT IS The JDBC-ODBE Bridge ?
The JDBC-ODBC Bridge is a Jdbc driver, which implements JDBC operations by translating
them into ODBC operations. To ODBC it appears as a normal application program. The Bridge
is implemented as the sun.jdbc.odbc Java package and contains a native library used to access
ODBC.The Bridge is joint development of Intersolv and Java Soft
4.4.2 Oracle
Oracle is a relational database management system, which organizes data in the form of tables.
Oracle is one of many database servers based on RDBMS model, which manages a seer of data
that attends three specific things-data structures, data integrity and data manipulation.
With oracle cooperative server technology we can realize the benefits of open, relational
systems for all the applications. Oracle makes efficient use of all systems resources, on all
hardware architecture; to deliver unmatched performance, price performance and scalability.
Any DBMS to be called as RDBMS has to satisfy Dr.E.F.Codd’s rules.
Features of Oracle:
Portable:
The Oracle RDBMS is available on wide range of platforms ranging from PCs to super
computers and as a multi user loadable module for Novel NetWare, if you develop application on
system you can run the same application on other systems without any modifications.
70
Compatible:
Oracle commands can be used for communicating with IBM DB2 mainframe RDBMS
that is different from Oracle, which is Oracle compatible with DB2. Oracle RDBMS is a high
performance fault tolerant DBMS, which is specially designed for online transaction processing
and for handling large database applications.
Multithreaded Server Architecture:
Oracle adaptable multithreaded server architecture delivers scalable high performance for
very large number of users on all hardware architecture including symmetric multiprocessors
(sumps) and loosely coupled multiprocessors. Performance is achieved by eliminating CPU, I/O,
memory and operating system bottlenecks and by optimizing the Oracle DBMS server code to
eliminate all internal bottlenecks.
Oracle has become the most popular RDBMS in the market because of its ease of use
 Client/server architecture.
 Data independence.
 Ensuring data integrity and data security.
 Managing data concurrency.
 Parallel processing support for speed up data entry and online transaction processing used
for applications.
 DB procedures, functions and packages.
Dr.E.F.Codd’s Rules:
These rules are used for valuating a product to be called as relational database
management systems. Out of 12 rules, a RDBMS product should satisfy at least 8 rules + rule
called rule 0 that must be satisfied.
71
RULE 0: Foundation Rule:
For any system to be advertised as, or claimed to be relational DBMS should manage
database with in it self, with out using an external language.
RULE 1: Information Rule:
All information in relational database is represented at logical level in only one way as
values in tables.
RULE 2: Guaranteed Access:
Each and every data in a relational database is guaranteed to be logically accessibility by
using to a combination of table name, primary key value and column name.
RULE 3: Systematic Treatment of Null Values:
Null values are supported for representing missing information and inapplicable
information. They must be handled in systematic way, independent of data types.
RULE 4: Dynamic Online Catalog based Relation Model:
The database description is represented at the logical level in the same way as ordinary
data so that authorized users can apply the same relational language to its interrogation as they
do to the regular data.
RULE 5: Comprehensive Data Sub Language:
A relational system may support several languages and various models of terminal use.
However there must be one language whose statement can express all of the following:
Data Definitions, View Definitions, Data Manipulations, Integrity, Constraints,
Authorization and transaction boundaries.
72
RULE 6: View Updating:
Any view that is theoretical can be updatable if changes can be made to the tables that
effect the desired changes in the view.
RULE 7: High level Update, Insert and Delete:
The capability of handling a base relational or derived relational as a single operand
applies not only retrieval of data also to its insertion, updating, and deletion.
RULE 8: Physical Data Independence:
Application program and terminal activities remain logically unimpaired whenever any
changes are made in either storage representation or access method.
RULE 9: Logical Data Independence:
Application programs and terminal activities remain logically unimpaired whenever any
changes are made in either storage representation or access methods.
RULE 10: Integrity Independence:
Integrity constraints specific to particular database must be definable in the relational data
stored in the catalog, not in application program.
RULE 11: Distributed Independence:
Whether or not a system supports database distribution, it must have a data sub-language
that can support distributed databases without changing the application program.
RULE 12: Non Sub-Version:
If a relational system has low level language, that low language cannot use to subversion
or by pass the integrity rules and constraints expressed in the higher level relational language.
73
Oracle supports the following Codd’s Rules
Rule 1: Information Rule (Representation of information)-YES.
Rule 2: Guaranteed Access-YES.
Rule 3: Systematic treatment of Null values-YES.
Rule 4: Dynamic on-line catalog-based Relational Model-YES.
Rule 5: Comprehensive data sub language-YES.
Rule 6: View Updating-PARTIAL.
Rule 7: High-level Update, Insert and Delete-YES.
Rule 8: Physical data Independence-PARTIAL.
Rule 9: Logical data Independence-PARTIAL.
Rule 10: Integrity Independence-PARTIAL.
Rule 11: Distributed Independence-YES.
Rule 12: Non-subversion-YES.
4.4.3 HTML
Hypertext Markup Language(HTML), the languages of the world wide web(WWW),
allows users to produces web pages that included text, graphics and pointer to other web
pages (Hyperlinks). HTML is not a programming language but it is an application of ISO
Standard 8879,SGML(Standard Generalized Markup Language),but Specialized to hypertext
and adapted to the Web. The idea behind Hypertext one point to another point. We can
74
navigate through the information based on out interest and preference. A markup language is
simply a series of items enclosed within the elements should be displayed.
Hyperlinks are underlined or emphasized works that load to other documents or some
portions of the same document.
Html can be used to display any type of document on the host computer, which can be
geographically at a different location. It is a versatile language and can be used on any
platform or desktop
HTML provides tags(special codes) to make the document look attractive.
HTML provides are not case-sensitive. Using graphics,fonts,different sizes, color, etc.. can
enhance the presentation of the document. Anything
That is not a tag is part of the document it self.
Basic Html Tags:
<!-- --> Specific Comments.
<A>………</A> Creates Hypertext links.
<B>………</B> Creates hypertext links.
<Big>……..</Big> Formats text in large-font
<Body>…….</Body> contains all tags and text in the Html-document
<Center>……</Center> Creates Text
<DD>………..</DD> Definition of a term.
<TABLE>……</TABLE> creates table
<Td>………..</Td> indicates table data in a table.
<Tr>………..</Tr> designates a table row
<Th>……….</Th> creates a heading in a table.
75
ADVANTAGES:-
A HTML document is small and hence easy to send over the net.It is small
because it does not include formatted information.
HTML is platform independent
HTML tags are not case-sensitive.
JAVA SCRIPT
The Java Script Language:
JavaScript is a compact , object-based scripting language for developing client and server
internet applications. Netscape Navigator 2.0 interprets JavaScript statements embedded
directly in an HTML page. and Livewire enables you to create server-based applications
similar to common gateway interface(cgi) programs.
In a client application for Navigator, JavaScript statements embedded in an HTML Page can
recognize and respond to user events such as mouse clicks form input, and page navigation.
For example, you can write a JavaScript function to verify that users enter valid information
into a form requesting a telephone number or zip code .
Without any network transmission, an Html page with embedded Java Script can interpret the
entered text and alert the user with a message dialog if the input is invalid or you can use
JavaScript to perform an action (such as play an audio file, execute an applet, or
communicate with a plug-in) in response to the user opening or existing a page.

TESTING
Testing is a process, which reveals errors in the program. It is the major quality measure
employed during software development. During software development. During testing, the
program is executed with a set of test cases and the output of the program for the test cases is
evaluated to determine if the program is performing as it is expected to perform.
TESTING IN STRATEGIES
In order to make sure that the system does not have errors, the different levels of
testing strategies that are applied at differing phases of software development are:
Unit Testing:
Unit Testing is done on individual modules as they are completed and become
executable. It is confined only to the designer's requirements.
Each module can be tested using the following two Strategies:
Black Box Testing:
In this strategy some test cases are generated as input conditions that fully execute all
functional requirements for the program. This testing has been uses to find errors in the
following categories:
Incorrect or missing functions
Interface errors
Errors in data structure or external database access
Performance errors
Initialization and termination errors.
In this testing only the output is checked for correctness. The logical flow of the data is not
checked.
90
White Box testing :
In this the test cases are generated on the logic of each module by drawing flow graphs
of that module and logical decisions are tested on all the cases. It has been uses to generate
the test cases in the following cases:
 Guarantee that all independent paths have been Executed.
 Execute all logical decisions on their true and false Sides.
 Execute all loops at their boundaries and within their operational bounds
 Execute internal data structures to ensure their validity.
Integrating Testing : Integration testing ensures that software and subsystems work
together a whole. It tests the interface of all the modules to make sure that the modules
behave properly when integrated together.
System Testing: Involves in-house testing of the entire system before delivery to the user.
It's aim is to satisfy the user the system meets all requirements of the client's specifications.
Acceptance Testing : It is a pre-delivery testing in which entire system is tested at
client's site on real world data to find errors.
Test Approach :
Testing can be done in two ways:
Bottom up approach
Top down approach
Bottom up Approach:
Testing can be performed starting from smallest and lowest level modules and
proceeding one at a time. For each module in bottom up testing a short program executes the
module and provides the needed data so that the module is asked to perform the way it will
91
when embedded with in the larger system. When bottom level modules are tested attention
turns to those on the next level that use the lower level ones they are tested individually and
then linked with the previously examined lower level modules.
Top down approach:
This type of testing starts from upper level modules. Since the detailed activities
usually performed in the lower level routines are not provided stubs are written. A stub is a
module shell called by upper level module and that when reached properly will return a
message to the calling module indicating that proper interaction occurred. No attempt is
made to verify the correctness of the lower level module.
Validation: The system has been tested and implemented successfully and thus ensured
that all the requirements as listed in the software requirements specification are completely
fulfilled. In case of erroneous input corresponding error messages are displayed
SYSTEM SECURITY
Setting Up Authentication for Web Applications
Introduction:
To configure authentication for a Web Application, use the <login-config> element of the
web.xml deployment descriptor. In this element you define the security realm containing the
user credentials, the method of authentication, and the location of resources for authentication.
SECURITY IN SOFTWARE:
To set up authentication for Web ApplIcations:
1. Open the web.xml deployment descriptor in a text editor or use the Administration
Console. Specify the authentication method using the <auth-method> element. The
available options are:
92
BASIC :
Basic authentication uses the Web Browser to display a username/password dialog box.
This username and password is authenticated against the realm.
FORM:
Form-based authentication requires that you return an HTML form containing the
username and password. The fields returned from the form elements must be: j_username
and j_password, and the action attribute must be j_security_check. Here is an example of
the HTML coding for using FORM authentication:
<form method="POST" action="j_security_check">
<input type="text" name="j_username">
<input type="password" name="j_password">
</form>
The resource used to generate the HTML form may be an HTML page, a JSP, or a
servlet. You define this resource with the <form-login-page> element.
The HTTP session object is created when the login page is served. Therefore, the
session.isNew () method returns FALSE when called from pages served after successful
authentication.

CONCLUSION:
The past decade has seen a growing interest in using graphical passwords as an alternative to the
traditional text-based passwords. In this paper, we have conducted a comprehensive survey of
existing graphical password techniques. The current graphical password techniques can be
classified into two categories: recognition-based and recall-based techniques. Although the main
argument for graphical passwords is that people are better at memorizing graphical passwords
than text-based passwords, the existing user studies are very limited and there is not yet
convincing evidence to support this argument. Our preliminary analysis suggests that it is more
difficult to hack graphical passwords with the traditional attacking methods like brute force
search, Dictionary search or spyware.
However, since there is not yet wide deployment of Graphical Password systems, the
vulnerabilities of Graphical Passwords are not fully understood.
Overall, the current graphical password techniques are still immature. Much more research and
user studies are needed for graphical password techniques to achieve higher levels of maturity
and usefulness.
ENHANCEMENT:
Information and computer security is supported largely by passwords which are the principle part
of the authentication process. The most common computer authentication method is to use
alphanumerical username and password which has significant drawbacks. To overcome the
vulnerabilities of traditional methods, visual or graphical password schemes have been developed
as possible alternative solutions to text-based scheme. A potential drawback of graphical password
schemes is that they are more vulnerable to shoulder surfing than conventional alphanumeric text
passwords. When users input their passwords in a public place, they may be at risk of attackers
stealing their password. An attacker can capture a password by direct observation or by recording
the individual’ s authentication session.
This is referred to as shoulder-surfing and is a known risk, of special concern
when authenticating in public places. In this paper we will present a survey on graphical password
schemes from 2005 till 2009which are proposed to be resistant against shoulder surfing attacks.
95
SHOULDER SURFING:
In Computer security Shoulder surfing refers to using direct observation techniques, such as
looking over someone's shoulder, to get information. Shoulder surfing is particularly effective in
crowded places because it is relatively easy to observe someone as they:
 fill out a form
 enter their PIN at an automated teller machine or a POSterminal
 use a calling card at a public pay phone
 enter passwords at a cybercafé, public and university libraries, or airport kiosks.
 enter a code for a rented locker in a public place such as a swimming pool or airport
.
Shoulder surfing can also be done at a distance using binoculars or other vision-enhancing
devices. Inexpensive, miniature closed circuit television cameras can be concealed in ceilings,
walls or fixtures to observe data entry.
3D-PASSWORDS:
Due to this I would like to enhance my software using 3D PASSWORDS in
which, to get authenticated ONE needs to navigate a 3D Virtual environment and has to get
interacted to various 3D objects. The sequence of actions and interactions toward the objects
inside the 3-D environment constructs the user’s 3-D password.
The 3-D password can combine most existing authentication schemes such as textual passwords,
graphical passwords, and various types of biometrics into a 3-D virtual environment. The design
of the 3-D virtual environment and the type of objects selected determine the 3-D password key
space.

  • 8. 8 STUDY OF THE SYSTEM: To provide flexibility to the users, the interfaces have been developed that are accessible through a browser. The GUI’S at the top level have been categorized as 1. Administrative user interface 2. The operational or generic user interface The ‘administrative user interface’ concentrates on the consistent information that is practically, part of the organizational activities and which needs proper authentication for the data collection. These interfaces help the administrators with all the transactional states like Data insertion, Data deletion and Date updation along with the extensive data search capabilities. The ‘operational or generic user interface’ helps the end users of the system in transactions through the existing data and required services. The operational user interface also helps the ordinary users in managing their own information in a customized manner as per the included flexibilities INPUT & OUTPOUT REPRESENTETION: Input design is a part of overall system design. The main objective during the input design is as given below:  To produce a cost-effective method of input.  To achieve the highest possible level of accuracy.  To ensure that the input is acceptable and understood by the user. INPUT STAGES: The main input stages can be listed as below:
  • 9. 9  Data recording  Data transcription  Data conversion  Data verification  Data control  Data transmission  Data validation  Data correction INPUT TYPES: It is necessary to determine the various types of inputs. Inputs can be categorized as follows:  External inputs, which are prime inputs for the system.  Internal inputs, which are user communications with the system.  Operational, which are computer department’s communications to the system?  Interactive, which are inputs entered during a dialogue.  INPUT MEDIA: At this stage choice has to be made about the input media. To conclude about the input media consideration has to be given to;  Type of input  Flexibility of format  Speed  Accuracy  Verification methods  Rejection rates  Ease of correction  Storage and handling requirements
  • 10. 10  Security  Easy to use  Portability Keeping in view the above description of the input types and input media, it can be said that most of the inputs are of the form of internal and interactive. As input data is to be the directly keyed in by the user, the keyboard can be considered to be the most suitable input device. OUTPUT DESIGN: In general are:  External Outputs whose destination is outside the organization.  Internal Outputs whose destination is with in organization and they are the User’s main interface with the computer. Outputs from computer systems are required primarily to communicate the results of processing to users. They are also used to provide a permanent copy of the results for later consultation. The various types of outputs  Operational outputs whose use is purely with in the computer department.  Interface outputs, which involve the user in communicating directly with the system. OUTPUT DEFINITION: The outputs should be defined in terms of the following points:  Type of the output  Content of the output  Format of the output  Location of the output  Frequency of the output  Volume of the output  Sequence of the output
  • 11. 11 It is not always desirable to print or display data as it is held on a computer. It should be decided as which form of the output is the most suitable. For Example  Will decimal points need to be inserted  Should leading zeros be suppressed. OUTPUT MEDIA: In the next stage it is to be decided that which medium is the most appropriate for the output. The main considerations when deciding about the output media are:  The suitability for the device to the particular application.  The need for a hard copy.  The response time required.  The location of the users  The software and hardware available. Keeping in view the above description the project is to have outputs mainly coming under the category of internal outputs. The main outputs desired according to the requirement specification are: The outputs were needed to be generated as a hard copy and as well as queries to be viewed on the screen. Keeping in view these outputs, the format for the output is taken from the outputs, which are currently being obtained after manual processing. The standard printer is to be used as output media for hard copies.
  • 12. 12 PROCESS MODEL USED WITH JUSTIFICATION SDLC (Umbrella Model): SDLC is nothing but Software Development Life Cycle. It is a standard which is used by software industry to develop good software. Stages in SDLC:  Requirement Gathering  Analysis  Designing  Coding Umbrella Activity Umbrella Activity Umbrella Activity • Feasibility Study • TEAM FORMATION • Project Specification PREPARATION Business Requirement Documentation ANALYSIS & DESIGN CODE UNIT TEST DOCUMENT CONTROL ASSESSMENT TRAINING INTEGRATION & SYSTEM TESTING DELIVERY/INS TALLATION ACCEPTANCE TEST Requirements Gathering
  • 13. 13  Testing  Maintenance Requirements Gathering stage: The requirements gathering process takes as its input the goals identified in the high-level requirements section of the project plan. Each goal will be refined into a set of one or more requirements. These requirements define the major functions of the intended application, define operational data areas and reference data areas, and define the initial data entities. Major functions include critical processes to be managed, as well as mission critical inputs, outputs and reports. A user class hierarchy is developed and associated with these major functions, data areas, and data entities. Each of these definitions is termed a Requirement. Requirements are identified by unique requirement identifiers and, at minimum, contain a requirement title and textual description.
  • 14. 14 These requirements are fully described in the primary deliverables for this stage: the Requirements Document and the Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM). The requirements document contains complete descriptions of each requirement, including diagrams and references to external documents as necessary. Note that detailed listings of database tables and fields are not included in the requirements document. The title of each requirement is also placed into the first version of the RTM, along with the title of each goal from the project plan. The purpose of the RTM is to show that the product components developed during each stage of the software development lifecycle are formally connected to the components developed in prior stages. In the requirements stage, the RTM consists of a list of high-level requirements, or goals, by title, with a listing of associated requirements for each goal, listed by requirement title. In this hierarchical listing, the RTM shows that each requirement developed during this stage is formally linked to a specific product goal. In this format, each requirement can be traced to a specific product goal, hence the term requirements traceability. The outputs of the requirements definition stage include the requirements document, the RTM, and an updated project plan.  Feasibility study is all about identification of problems in a project.  No. of staff required to handle a project is represented as Team Formation, in this case only modules are individual tasks will be assigned to employees who are working for that project.  Project Specifications are all about representing of various possible inputs submitting to the server and corresponding outputs along with reports maintained by administrator Analysis Stage: The planning stage establishes a bird's eye view of the intended software product, and uses this to establish the basic project structure, evaluate feasibility and risks associated with the project, and describe appropriate management and technical approaches.
  • 15. 15 The most critical section of the project plan is a listing of high-level product requirements, also referred to as goals. All of the software product requirements to be developed during the requirements definition stage flow from one or more of these goals. The minimum information for each goal consists of a title and textual description, although additional information and references to external documents may be included. The outputs of the project planning stage are the configuration management plan, the quality assurance plan, and the project plan and schedule, with a detailed listing of scheduled activities for the upcoming Requirements stage, and high level estimates of effort for the out stages. Designing Stage: The design stage takes as its initial input the requirements identified in the approved requirements document. For each requirement, a set of one or more design elements will be produced as a result of interviews, workshops, and/or prototype efforts. Design elements describe the desired software features in detail, and generally include functional hierarchy diagrams, screen layout diagrams, tables of business rules, business process diagrams, pseudo code, and a complete entity-relationship diagram with a full data dictionary. These design elements are intended to describe the software in sufficient detail that skilled programmers may develop the software with minimal additional input.
  • 16. 16 When the design document is finalized and accepted, the RTM is updated to show that each design element is formally associated with a specific requirement. The outputs of the design stage are the design document, an updated RTM, and an updated project plan. Development (Coding) Stage: The development stage takes as its primary input the design elements described in the approved design document. For each design element, a set of one or more software artifacts will be produced. Software artifacts include but are not limited to menus, dialogs, data management forms, data reporting formats, and specialized procedures and functions. Appropriate test cases will be developed for each set of functionally related software artifacts, and an online help system will be developed to guide users in their interactions with the software.
  • 17. 17 The RTM will be updated to show that each developed artifact is linked to a specific design element, and that each developed artifact has one or more corresponding test case items. At this point, the RTM is in its final configuration. The outputs of the development stage include a fully functional set of software that satisfies the requirements and design elements previously documented, an online help system that describes the operation of the software, an implementation map that identifies the primary code entry points for all major system functions, a test plan that describes the test cases to be used to validate the correctness and completeness of the software, an updated RTM, and an updated project plan. Integration & Test Stage: During the integration and test stage, the software artifacts, online help, and test data are migrated from the development environment to a separate test environment. At this point, all test cases are run to verify the correctness and completeness of the software. Successful execution of the test suite confirms a robust and complete migration capability. During this stage, reference data is finalized for production use and production users are identified and linked to their
  • 18. 18 appropriate roles. The final reference data (or links to reference data source files) and production user list are compiled into the Production Initiation Plan. The outputs of the integration and test stage include an integrated set of software, an online help system, an implementation map, a production initiation plan that describes reference data and production users, an acceptance plan which contains the final suite of test cases, and an updated project plan.  Installation & Acceptance Test: During the installation and acceptance stage, the software artifacts, online help, and initial production data are loaded onto the production server. At this point, all test cases are run to verify the correctness and completeness of the software. Successful execution of the test suite is a prerequisite to acceptance of the software by the customer.
  • 19. 19 After customer personnel have verified that the initial production data load is correct and the test suite has been executed with satisfactory results, the customer formally accepts the delivery of the software. The primary outputs of the installation and acceptance stage include a production application, a completed acceptance test suite, and a memorandum of customer acceptance of the software. Finally, the PDR enters the last of the actual labor data into the project schedule and locks the project as a permanent project record. At this point the PDR "locks" the project by archiving all software items, the implementation map, the source code, and the documentation for future reference. Maintenance: Outer rectangle represents maintenance of a project, Maintenance team will start with requirement study, understanding of documentation later employees will be assigned work and they will under go training on that particular assigned category.

  • 22. 22 3.2 USER REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION Feasibility Study: Preliminary investigation examines project feasibility, the likelihood the system will be useful to the organization. The main objective of the feasibility study is to test the Technical, Operational and Economical feasibility for adding new modules and debugging old running system. All systems are feasible if they are given unlimited resources and infinite time. There are aspects in the feasibility study portion of the preliminary investigation:  Technical Feasibility  Operation Feasibility  Economical Feasibility 3.1 TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY: The technical issue usually raised during the feasibility stage of the investigation includes the following:  Does the necessary technology exist to do what is suggested?  Do the proposed equipments have the technical capacity to hold the data required to use the new system?  Will the proposed system provide adequate response to inquiries, regardless of the number or location of users?  Can the system be upgraded if developed? Are there technical guarantees of accuracy, reliability, ease of access and data security? 3.2 OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY: User-friendly: Customer will use the forms for their various transactions i.e. for adding new routes, viewing the routes details. Also the Customer wants the reports to view the various transactions based on the constraints. Theses forms and reports are generated as user-friendly to the Client.
  • 23. 23 Reliability: The package wills pick-up current transactions on line. Regarding the old transactions, User will enter them in to the system. Security: The web server and database server should be protected from hacking, virus etc. Portability: The application will be developed using standard open source software (Except Oracle) like Java, tomcat web server, Internet Explorer Browser etc these software will work both on Windows and Linux o/s. Hence portability problems will not arise. Availability: This software will be available always. Maintainability: The system called the ewheelz uses the 2-tier architecture. The 1st tier is the GUI, which is said to be front-end and the 2nd tier is the database, which uses My-Sql, which is the back- end. The front-end can be run on different systems (clients). The database will be running at the server. Users access these forms by using the user-ids and the passwords. 3.3 ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY: The computerized system takes care of the present existing system’s data flow and procedures completely and should generate all the reports of the manual system besides a host of other management reports. It should be built as a web based application with separate web server and database server. This is required as the activities are spread through out the organization customer wants a centralized database. Further some of the linked transactions

Open source software like TOMCAT, JAVA, Mysql and Linux is used to minimize the cost for the Customer. 4.1 FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION: MODULES: 1. Authentication Module 2. Remote Handling 3. Remote File Searching 4. Privileges 5. Remote Process Management MODULES DESCRIPTION: 1. Authentication Module:  To login to Home page we need to provide a password by selecting images. These images are retrieved from database dynamically .In database each character has assigned a particular image.  User has to select the exact image. Only a valid user can identify the exact image. If a user doesn’t select a exact image then it returns back to the previous page, which shows that the user is an invalid user. 2. Remote Handling: The Remote Handling module handles the terminal operations such as shutdown, restart and logoff, by specifying the IP address of the remote system. 3. Remote File Searching: In order to search the required files, the administrator has to mention the type of file he wanted to search. 3. Privileges:
  • 25. 25 The Privileges module mainly handles the permissions of the files. The file permissions include read, write and hidden permissions 5. Remote System Configuration: The administrator using this module can specify the configuration of a particular system. These configuration details can be obtained by specifying the IP address of the remote system. 6. Remote Process Management: This module can determine the processes that are currently running in a particular system, administrator using present in a network. 3.3 SYSTEM REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATIONS 4.2 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS: Performance is measured in terms of the output provided by the application. Requirement specification plays an important part in the analysis of a system. Only when the requirement specifications are properly given, it is possible to design a system, which will fit into required environment. It rests largely with the users of the existing system to give the requirement specifications because they are the people who finally use the system. This is because the requirements have to be known during the initial stages so that the system can be designed according to those requirements. It is very difficult to change the system once it has been designed and on the other hand designing a system, which does not cater to the requirements of the user, is of no use. The requirement specification for any system can be broadly stated as given below: The system should be able to interface with the existing system
  • 26. 26  The system should be accurate  The system should be better than the existing system The existing system is completely dependent on the user to perform all the duties. 3.3.1 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS:  JDK 1.5  Java Swing  Oracle  RMI (Remote Method Invocation) 3.3.2 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS:  Hard disk : 40 GB  RAM : 512 MB  Processor Speed : 3.00GHz  Processor : Pentium IV Processor Additional Tools:  HTML Designing : Dream weaver Tool  Development Tool kit : My Eclipse

  • 28. 28 Systems design: Systems design is the process or art of defining the architecture, components, modules, interfaces, and data for a system to satisfy specified requirements. One could see it as the application of systems theory to product development. There is some overlap and synergy with the disciplines of systems analysis, systems architecture and systems engineering. 5.2 UML DIAGRAMS: Unified Modeling Language: 1The Unified Modeling Language allows the software engineer to express an analysis model using the modeling notation that is governed by a set of syntactic semantic and pragmatic rules. A UML system is represented using five different views that describe the system from distinctly different perspective. Each view is defined by a set of diagram, which is as follows.  User Model View:  This view represents the system from the users perspective.  The analysis representation describes a usage scenario from the end-users perspective.  Structural model view:  In this model the data and functionality are arrived from inside the system.  This model view models the static structures.  Behavioral Model View: It represents the dynamic of behavioral as parts of the system, depicting the interactions of collection between various structural elements described in the user model and structural model view.  Implementation Model View: In this the structural and behavioral as parts of the system are represented as they are to be built.
  • 29. 29  Environmental Model View: In this the structural and behavioral aspects of the environment in which the system is to be implemented are represented. UML is specifically constructed through two different domains they are:  UML Analysis modeling, this focuses on the user model and structural model views of the system.  UML design modeling, which focuses on the behavioral modeling, implementation modeling and environmental model views. Use case Diagrams represent the functionality of the system from a user’s point of view. Use cases are used during requirements elicitation and analysis to represent the functionality of the system. Use cases focus on the behavior of the system from external point of view. Actors are external entities that interact with the system. Examples of actors include users like administrator, bank customer …etc., or another system like central database. 4.1 DATABASE DESIGN UML DIAGRAMS UML Diagrams: the modules present in the Terminal Controller software.

The database design is used to group data into a number of tables and minimizes the artificiality embedded in using separate files. The tables are organized to: Reduced duplication of data. Simplify functions like adding, deleting, modifying data etc.., Retrieving data Clarity and ease of use More information at low cost Normalization: Normalization is built around the concept of normal forms. A relation is said to be in a particular normal form if it satisfies a certain specified set of constraints on the kind of functional dependencies that could be associated with the relation. The normal forms are used to ensure that various types of anomalies and inconsistencies are not introduced into the database. First Normal Form: A relation R is in first normal form if and only if all underlying domains contained atomic values only. Second Normal Form: A relation R is said to be in second normal form if and only if it is in first normal form and every non-key attribute is fully dependent on the primary key. Third Normal Form: A relation R is said to be in third normal form if and only if it is in second normal form and every non key attribute is non transitively depend on the primary key.

  • 53. 53 JAVA About Java: Initially the language was called as “oak” but it was renamed as “java” in 1995.The primary motivation of this language was the need for a platform-independent(i.e. architecture neutral)language that could be used to create software to be embedded in various consumer electronic devices. Java is a programmer’s language Java is cohesive and consistent Except for those constraint imposed by the Internet environment. Java gives the programmer, full control Finally Java is to Internet Programming where c was to System Programming. Importance of Java to the Internet: Java has had a profound effect on the Internet. This is because; java expands the Universe of objects that can move about freely in Cyberspace. In a network, two categories of objects are transmitted between the server and the personal computer. They are passive information and Dynamic active programs. in the areas of Security and probability. But Java addresses these concerns and by doing so, has opened the door to an exciting new form of program called the Applet. Applications and applets: An application is a program that runs on our Computer under the operating system of that computer. It is more or less like one creating using C or C++ .Java’s ability to create Applets makes it important. An Applet I san application, designed to be transmitted over the Internet and executed by a Java-compatible web browser. An applet I actually a tiny Java program, dynamically downloaded across the network, just like an image. But the difference is, it is an intelligent program, not just a media file. It can be react to the user input and dynamically change. Java Architecture: Java architecture provides a portable, robust, high performing environment for development. Java provides portability by compiling the byte codes for the
  • 54. 54 Java Virtual Machine, which is then interpreted on each platform by the run-time environment. Java is a dynamic system, able to load code when needed from a machine in the same room or across the planet. Compilation of code: When you compile the code, the Java compiler creates machine code (called byte code)for a hypothetical machine called Java Virtual Machine(JVM). The JVM is supposed t executed the byte code. The JVM is created for the overcoming the issue of probability. The code is written and compiled for one machine and interpreted on all machines .This machine is called Java Virtual Machine. Compiling and interpreting java source code: During run-time the Java interpreter tricks the byte code file into thinking that it is running on a Java Virtual Machine. In reality this could be an Intel Pentium windows 95 or sun SPARCstation running Solaris or Apple Macintosh running system and all could receive code from any computer through internet and run the Applets. Source code Pc compiler Macintosh compiler SPARC Compiler Java Byte code Platform independ ent Java interpreter Java interpreterm acintosh ))) Java interpreter( SPARC)
  • 55. 55 Simple: Java was designed to be easy for the Professional programmer to learn and to use effectively. If you are an experienced C++ Programmer. Learning Java will oriented features of C++ . Most of the confusing concepts from C++ are either left out of Java or implemented in a cleaner, more approachable manner. In Java there are a small number of clearly defined ways to accomplish a given task. Object oriented: Java was not designed to be source-code compatible with any other language. This allowed the Java team the freedom to design with a blank state. One outcome of this was a clean usable, pragmatic approach to objects. The object model in Java is simple and easy to extend, while simple types, such as integers, are kept as high-performance non-objects. Robust: The multi-platform environment of the web places extraordinary demands on a program, because the program must execute reliably in a variety of systems. The ability to create robust programs. Was given a high priority in the design of Java. Java is strictly typed language; it checks your code at compile time and runtime. Java virtually eliminates the problems of memory management and deal location, which is completely automatic. In a well-written Java program, all run-time errors can and should be managed by your program. Servlets/JSP A Servlet Is a generic server extension or a Java class that can be loaded dynamically to expand the functionality of a server. Servlets are commonly used with web servers, Where they can take the place CGI scripts.
  • 56. 56 A servlet is similar to proprietary server extension, except that it runs inside a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) on the server, so it is safe and portable.Servlets operate solely within the domain of the server. Unlike CGI and Fast CGI, which use multiple processes to handle separate program or separate requests, separate threads within web server process handle all servlets. This means that servlets are all efficient and scalable. Servlets are portable; both across operating systems and also across web servers. Java Servlets offer the best possible platform for web application development. Servlets are used as replacement for CGI scripts on a web server, they can extend any sort of server such as a mail server that allows servelts t extend its functionality perhaps by performing a virus scan on all attached documents or handling mail filtering tasks. Servlets provide a Java-based solution used to address the problems currently associated with doing server-side programming including inextensible scripting solutions platform-specific API’s and incomplete interface. Servlets are objects that conform to a specific interface that can be plugged into a Java-based server.Servlets are to the server-side what applets are to the server-side what applets are to the client-side-object byte codes that can be dynamically loaded off the net. They differ form applets in than they are faceless objects(with out graphics or a GUI component).They serve as platform independent, dynamically loadable,plugable helper byte code objects on the server side that can be used to dynamically extend server-side functionality. For example an HTTP servlet can be used to generate dynamic HTML content when you use servlets to do dynamic content you get the following advantages: They’re faster and cleaner then CGI scripts They use a standard API( the servlet API) They provide all the advantages of Java (run on a variety of servers without needing to be rewritten)
  • 57. 57 Attractiveness of Servlets: They are many features of servlets that make them easy and attractive to tuse these include: Easily configure using the GUI-based Admin tool] Can be Loaded and Invoked from a local disk or remotely across the network. Can be linked together or chained, so that on servlet can call another servlet, or several servlets in sequence. Can be called dynamically from with in HTML, pages using server-side include- tags. Are secure-even when downloading across the network, the servlet security model and servlet and box protect your system from unfriendly behavior., Advantages of the servlet API: One of the great advantages of the servlet API is protocol independent. It assumes nothing about: The protocol being used to transmit on the net How it is loaded The server environment it will be running in These quantities are important, because it allows the Servlet API to be embedded in many different kinds of servers.There are other advantages to the servelt API as well These include: It’s extensible-you can inherit all your functionality from the base classes made available to you It’s simple small, and easy to use.
  • 58. 58 Features of Servlets: Servlets are persistent.Servlet are loaded only by the web server and can maintain services between requests. Servlets are fast. Since servlets only need to be lloaded once, they offer much better performance over their CGI counterparts. Servlets are platform independent. Servlets are extensible Java is a robust, object-oriented programming language, which easily can be extended to suit your needs. Servlets are secure Servlets are used with a variety of client. Servlets are classes and interfaces from tow packages,javax .servlet and javax.servlet.http. The java.servlet package contains classes t support generic, protocol-independent servlets.The classes in the javax.servelt.http package To and HTTP specific functionality extend these classes Every servlet must implement the javax.servelt interface.Most servlets implement it by extending one of two classes.javax.servlet.GenericServlet or javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.A protocol-independent servlet should subclass Generic-Servlet.while an Http servlet should subclass HttpServlet, which is itself a subclass of Generic-servlet with added HTTP-specific functionality. Unlike a java program, a servlet does not have a main() method,Instead the server in the process of handling requests invoke certain methods of a servlet.Each time the server dispatches a request to a servlet, it invokes the servelts Service() method, A generic servlet should override its service() method to handle requests as appropriate for the servlet.The service() accepts two parameters a request object and a response object .The request object tells the servlet about the request, while the response object is used to return a response.
  • 59. 59 In Contrast an Http servlet usually does not override the service() method instead it overrides doGet() to handle GET requests and doPost() to handle Post requests. An Http servlet can override either or both of these modules the service() method of HttpServlet handles the setup and dispatching to all the doXXX() methods.which iswhy it usually should not be overridden. The remainders in the javax.servlet and javax.servlet.http.package are largely support classes .The ServletRequest and ServletResponse classes in javax.servlet provide access to generic server requests and responses while HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse classes in javax.servlet provide access to generic server requests and responses while HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse in javax.servlet.http provide access a HTTP requests and responses . The javax.servlet.http provide contains an HttpSession class that provides built-in session tracking functionality and Cookie class that allows quickly setup and processing HttpCookies. Loading Servlets: Servlets can be loaded from their places. From a directory that is on the CLASSPATH. The CLASSPATH of the JavaWebServer includes service root/classes/, which is where the system classes reside From the <SERVICE_ROOT/servlets/directory,this is not in the server’s classpath. A class loader is used to create servlets form this directory new servlets can be added-existing servlets can be recompiled and the server will notice these changes. From a remote location.For this a code base like http://nine.eng/classes/foo/ is required in addtion to the servlet’s class name.Refer to the admin Gui docs on servlet section to see how to set this up. Loading Remote Servlets: Remote servlets can be loaded by: Configuring the admin Tool to setup automatic loading of remote servlets. Selectiong up server side include tags in .html files Defining a filter chain Configuration
  • 60. 60 Invoking Servlets: A servlet invoker is a servlet that invokes the “server” method on a named servlet.If the servlet is not loaded in the server,then the invoker first loades the servlet(either form local disk or from the network) and the then invokes the “service” method.Also like applets,local servlets in the server can be identified by just the class name.In other words, if a servlet name is not absolute.it is treated as local. A Client can Invoke Servlets in the Following Ways: The client can ask for a document that is served by the servlet. The client(browser) can invoke the servlet directly using a URL, once it has been mapped using the SERVLET ALIASES Section of the admin GUI The servlet can be invoked through server side include tags. The servlet can be invoked by placing it in the servlets/directory The servlet can be invoked by using it in a filter chain The Servlet Life Cycle:- The Servlet life cycle is one of the most exciting features of Servlets.This life cycle is a powerful hybrid of the life cycles used in CGI programming and lower-level NSAPI and ISAPI programming. The servlet life cycle allows servlet engines to address both the performance and resource problems of CGI and the security concents of low level server API programming. Servlet life cycle is highly flexible Servers hava significant leeway in how they choose to support servlets.The only hard and fast rule is that a servlet engine must confor to the following life cycle contact: Create and initialize the servlets Handle zero or more service from clients Destroy the servlet and then garbage Collects it.
  • 61. 61 It’s perfectly legal for a servlet t be loaded, created an initialzed in its own JVM,only to be destroyed an dgarbage collected without hancdling any clientrequest or after handling just one request The most common and most sensible life cycle implemntations for HTTP servelts are: Single java virtual machine and astatine persistence. Init and Destroy:- Just like Applets servlets can define init() and destroy() methods, A servlets init(ServiceConfig) method is called by the server immediately after the server constructs the servlet’s instance.Depanding on the server and its configuration, this can be at any of these times When the server states When the servlet is first requested, just before the service() method is invoked At the request of the server administrator In any case, nit() is guaranteed to be called before the servlet handles its first request The init() method is typically used to perform servlet initialization creating or loading objects that are used by the servlet in handling of its request. In order to providing a new servlet any information about itself and its environment, a server has to call a servelts init() method and pass an object that implement the ServletConfig interface. This ServletConfig object supplies a servlet with information about its initialization parameters.These parameters are given to the servlets and are not associated with any single request.They can specify initial values, such as where a counter should begin counting, or default values, perhaps a template to use when not specified by the request, The server calls a servlet’s destroy() method when the servlet is about to be unloaded. In the destroy() method, a servlet should free any resources it has acquired that will not be garbage collected. The destroy() method also gives a servlet a chance to write out its unsaved. cached information or any persistent information that should be read during the next call to init().
  • 62. 62 Session Tracking: HTTP is a stateless protocol, it provides no way for a server to recognize that a sequence of requests is all from the same client. This causes a problem for application such as shopping cart applications. Even in chat application server can’t know exactly who’s making a request of several clients. The solution for this is for client to introduce itself as it makes each request, Each clients needs to provide a unique identifier that lets the server identify it, or it needs to give some information that the server can use to properly handle the request, There are several ways to send this introductory information with each request Such as: USER AUTHORIZATION: One way to perform session tracking is to leverage the information that comes with User authorization. When a web server restricts access to some of its resources to only those clients that log in using a recognized username and password. After the client logs in, the username is available to a servlet through getRemoteUser () we can use the username to track the session. Once a user has logged in, the browser remembers her username and resends the name and password as the user views new pages on the site. A servlet can identify the user through her username and they’re by track her session. The biggest advantage of using user authorization to perform session tracking is that it’s easy to implement. Simply tell the protect a set of pages, and use getRemoteUser() to identify each client.Another advantage is that the technique works even when the user accesses your site form or exists her browser before coming back. The biggest disadvantage of user authrization is that it requires each user to register for an account and then log in in each time the starts visiting your site. Most users will tolerate registering and lagging in as a necessary evil when they are accessing sensitive information, but its all overkill for simple session tracking.Other problem with user authorization is that a user cannot simultaneously maintain more than one session at the same site.
  • 63. 63 Hidden Form Fields: One way to support anonymous session tracking is to use hidden from fields. As the name implies, these are fields added to an HTML, form that are not displayed in the client’s browser, They are sent back to the server when the form that contains them is submitted. In a sense, hidden form fields define constant variables for a form. To a servlet receiving a submitted form, there is no difference between a hidden fields and a visible filed. As more and more information is associated with a clients session . It can become burdensome to pass it all using hidden form fields. In these situations it’s possible to pass on just a unique session ID that identifies as particular clients session. That session ID can be associated with complete information about its session that is stored on the server. The advantage of hidden form fields is their ubiquity and support for anonymity. Hidden fields are supported in all the popular browsers, they demand on special server requirements, and they can be used with clients that haven’t registered or logged in. The major disadvantage with this technique, however is that works only for a sequence of dynamically generated forms, The technique breaks down immediately with static documents, emailed documents book marked documents and browser shutdowns. URL Rewriting: URL rewriting is another way to support anonymous session tracking, With URL rewriting every local URL the user might click on is dynamically modified. or rewritten, to include extra, information. The extra information can be in the deform of extra path information, added parameters, or some custom, server-specific.URL change. Due to the limited space available in rewriting a URL, the extra information is usually limited to a unique session. Each rewriting technique has its own advantage and disadvantage Using extra path information works on all servers, and it works as a target for forms that use both the Get and Post methods. It does not work well if the servlet has to use the extra path information as true path information
  • 64. 64 The advantages and disadvantages of URL.rewriting closely match those of hidden form fileds,The major difference is that URL rewriting works for all dynamically created documents, such as the Help servlet, not just forms. With the right server support, custom URL rewriting can even work for static documents. Persistent Cookies: A fourth technique to perform session tracking involves persistent cookies. A cookie is a bit of information. sent by a web server to a browser that can later be read back form that browser. When a browser receives a cookie, it saves the cookie and there after sends the cookie back to the server each time it accesses a page on that server, subject to certain rules. Because a cookie’s value can uniquely identify a client, cookies are often used for session tracking. Persistent cookies offer an elegant, efficient easy way to implement session tracking. Cookies provide as automatic an introduction for each request as we could hope for. For each request, a cookie can automatically provide a client’s session ID or perhaps a list of clients performance. The ability to customize cookies gives them extra power and versatility. The biggest problem with cookies is that browsers don’t always accept cookies sometimes this is because the browser doesn’t support cookies. More often its because The browser doesn’t support cookies. More often its because the user has specifically configured the browser to refuse cookies. The power of serves: The power of servlets is nothing but the advantages of servlets over other approaches, which include portability, power, efficiency, endurance, safety elegance, integration, extensibility and flexibility. Portability: As servlets are written in java and conform to a well defined and widely accepted API.they are highly portable across operating systems and across server implementation We can develop a servlet on a windows NT machine running the java web server and later deploy it effortlessly on a high-end Unix server running apache. With servlets we can really “write once, serve every where”
  • 65. 65 Servlet portability is not the stumbling block it so often is with applets, for two reasons First,Servlet portability is not mandatory i.e. servlets has to work only on server machines that we are using for development and deployment Second, servlets avoid the most error-prone and inconstancy implemented portion of the java languages. Power: Servlets can harness the full power of the core java. API’s: such as Networking and Url access, multithreading, image manipulation, data compression, data base connectivity, internationalization, remote method invocation(RMI) CORBA connectivity, and object serialization, among others, Efficiency And Endurance: Servlet invocation is highly efficient, Once a servlet is loaded it generally remains in the server’s memory as a single object instance, There after the server invokes the servelt to handle a request using a simple, light weighted method invocation .Unlike the CGI, there’s no process to spawn or interpreter to invoke, so the servlet can begin handling the request almost immediately, Multiple, concurrent requests are handled the request almost immediately. Multiple, concurrent requests are handled by separate threads, so servlets are highly scalable. Servlets in general are enduring objects. Because a servlets stays in the server’s memory as a single object instance. it automatically maintains its state and can hold onto external resources, such as database connections. Safety: Servlets support safe programming practices on a number of levels. As they are written in java,servlets inherit the strong type safety of the java language. In addition the servlet API is implemented to be type safe. Java’s automatic garbage collection and lack of pointers mean that servlets are generally safe from memory management problems like dangling pointers invalid pointer references and memory leaks.
  • 66. 66 Servlets can handle errors safely, due to java’s exception – handling mechanism. If a servlet divides by zero or performs some illegal operations, it throws an exception that can be safely caught and handled by the server. A server can further protect itself from servlets through the use of java security manager.A server can execute its servlets under the watch of a strict security manager. Elegance: The elegance of the servlet code is striking .Servlet code is clean, object oriented modular and amazingly simple one reason for this simplicity is the served API itself. Which includes methods and classes to handle many of the routine chores of servlet development. Even advanced to operations like cookie handling and session tracking tracking are abstracted int convenient classes. Integration: Servlets are tightly integrated with the server. This integration allows a servlet to cooperate with the server in two ways . for e.g.: a servlet can use the server to translate file paths, perform logging, check authorization, perform MIME type mapping and in some cases even add users to the server’s user database. Extensibility and Flexibility: The servlet API is designed to be easily extensible. As it stands today the API includes classes that are optimized for HTTP servlets.But later it can be extended and optimized for another type of servlets.It is also possible that its support for HTTP servlets could be further enhanced. Servlets are also quite flexible, Sun also introduced java server pages. which offer a way to write snippets of servlet code directly with in a static HTML page using syntax similar to Microsoft’s Active server pages(ASP)
  • 67. 67 JDBC What is JDBC? In any relational database one can write a single program using the JDBC API and the JDBC is a Java Api for executing SQL Statements(As a point of interest JDBC is trademarked name and is not an acronym; nevertheless, Jdbc is often thought of as standing for Java Database Connectivity. It consists of a set of classes and interfaces written in the Java Programming language. JDBC provides a standard API for tool/database developers and makes it possible to write database applications using a pure Java API. Using JDBC, it is easy to send SQL statements to virtually program will be able to send SQL .statements to the appropriate database. The Combination of Java and JDBC lets a programmer writes it once and run it anywhere. What Does JDBC Do? Simply put, JDBC makes it possible to do three things o Establish a connection with a database o Send SQL statements o Process the results o JDBC Driver Types o The JDBC drivers that we are aware of this time fit into one of four categories o JDBC-ODBC Bridge plus ODBC driver o Native-API party-java driver o JDBC-Net pure java driver o Native-protocol pure Java driver An individual database system is accessed via a specific JDBC driver that implements the java.sql.Driver interface. Drivers exist for nearly all-popular RDBMS systems, through few are available for free. Sun bundles a free JDBC-ODBC bridge driver with the JDK to allow access to a standard ODBC,data sources, such as a Microsoft Access database, Sun advises
  • 68. 68 against using the bridge driver for anything other than development and very limited development. JDBC drivers are available for most database platforms, from a number of vendors and in a number of different flavours. There are four driver categories Type 01-JDBC-ODBC Bridge Driver: Type 01 drivers use a bridge technology to connect a java client to an ODBC database service. Sun’s JDBC-ODBC bridge is the most common type 01 driver. These drivers implemented using native code. Type 02-Native-API party-java Driver: Type 02 drivers wrap a thin layer of java around database-specific native code libraries for Oracle databases, the native code libraries might be based on the OCI(Oracle call Interface) libraries, which were originally designed for c/c++ programmers, Because type-02 drivers are implemented using native code. in some cases they have better performance than their all-java counter parts. They add an element of risk, however, because a defect in a driver’s native code section can crash the entire server Type 03-Net-Protocol All-Java Driver: Type 03 drivers communicate via a generic network protocol to a piece of custom middleware. The middleware component might use any type of driver to provide the actual database access. These drivers are all java, which makes them useful for applet deployment and safe for servlet deployment Type-04-native-protocol All-java Driver: Type o4 drivers are the most direct of the lot. Written entirely in java, Type 04 drivers understand database-specific networking. protocols and can access the database directly without any additional software
  • 69. 69 JDBC-ODBC Bridge: If possible use a Pure Java JDBC driver instead of the Bridge and an ODBC driver. This completely eliminates the client configuration required by ODBC.It also eliminates the potential that the Java VM could be corrupted by an error in the native code brought in by the Bridge(that is, the Bridge native library, the ODBC driver manager library, library, the ODBC driver library, and the database client library) WHAT IS The JDBC-ODBE Bridge ? The JDBC-ODBC Bridge is a Jdbc driver, which implements JDBC operations by translating them into ODBC operations. To ODBC it appears as a normal application program. The Bridge is implemented as the sun.jdbc.odbc Java package and contains a native library used to access ODBC.The Bridge is joint development of Intersolv and Java Soft 4.4.2 Oracle Oracle is a relational database management system, which organizes data in the form of tables. Oracle is one of many database servers based on RDBMS model, which manages a seer of data that attends three specific things-data structures, data integrity and data manipulation. With oracle cooperative server technology we can realize the benefits of open, relational systems for all the applications. Oracle makes efficient use of all systems resources, on all hardware architecture; to deliver unmatched performance, price performance and scalability. Any DBMS to be called as RDBMS has to satisfy Dr.E.F.Codd’s rules. Features of Oracle: Portable: The Oracle RDBMS is available on wide range of platforms ranging from PCs to super computers and as a multi user loadable module for Novel NetWare, if you develop application on system you can run the same application on other systems without any modifications.
  • 70. 70 Compatible: Oracle commands can be used for communicating with IBM DB2 mainframe RDBMS that is different from Oracle, which is Oracle compatible with DB2. Oracle RDBMS is a high performance fault tolerant DBMS, which is specially designed for online transaction processing and for handling large database applications. Multithreaded Server Architecture: Oracle adaptable multithreaded server architecture delivers scalable high performance for very large number of users on all hardware architecture including symmetric multiprocessors (sumps) and loosely coupled multiprocessors. Performance is achieved by eliminating CPU, I/O, memory and operating system bottlenecks and by optimizing the Oracle DBMS server code to eliminate all internal bottlenecks. Oracle has become the most popular RDBMS in the market because of its ease of use  Client/server architecture.  Data independence.  Ensuring data integrity and data security.  Managing data concurrency.  Parallel processing support for speed up data entry and online transaction processing used for applications.  DB procedures, functions and packages. Dr.E.F.Codd’s Rules: These rules are used for valuating a product to be called as relational database management systems. Out of 12 rules, a RDBMS product should satisfy at least 8 rules + rule called rule 0 that must be satisfied.
  • 71. 71 RULE 0: Foundation Rule: For any system to be advertised as, or claimed to be relational DBMS should manage database with in it self, with out using an external language. RULE 1: Information Rule: All information in relational database is represented at logical level in only one way as values in tables. RULE 2: Guaranteed Access: Each and every data in a relational database is guaranteed to be logically accessibility by using to a combination of table name, primary key value and column name. RULE 3: Systematic Treatment of Null Values: Null values are supported for representing missing information and inapplicable information. They must be handled in systematic way, independent of data types. RULE 4: Dynamic Online Catalog based Relation Model: The database description is represented at the logical level in the same way as ordinary data so that authorized users can apply the same relational language to its interrogation as they do to the regular data. RULE 5: Comprehensive Data Sub Language: A relational system may support several languages and various models of terminal use. However there must be one language whose statement can express all of the following: Data Definitions, View Definitions, Data Manipulations, Integrity, Constraints, Authorization and transaction boundaries.
  • 72. 72 RULE 6: View Updating: Any view that is theoretical can be updatable if changes can be made to the tables that effect the desired changes in the view. RULE 7: High level Update, Insert and Delete: The capability of handling a base relational or derived relational as a single operand applies not only retrieval of data also to its insertion, updating, and deletion. RULE 8: Physical Data Independence: Application program and terminal activities remain logically unimpaired whenever any changes are made in either storage representation or access method. RULE 9: Logical Data Independence: Application programs and terminal activities remain logically unimpaired whenever any changes are made in either storage representation or access methods. RULE 10: Integrity Independence: Integrity constraints specific to particular database must be definable in the relational data stored in the catalog, not in application program. RULE 11: Distributed Independence: Whether or not a system supports database distribution, it must have a data sub-language that can support distributed databases without changing the application program. RULE 12: Non Sub-Version: If a relational system has low level language, that low language cannot use to subversion or by pass the integrity rules and constraints expressed in the higher level relational language.

HTML is platform independent HTML tags are not case-sensitive. JAVA SCRIPT The Java Script Language: JavaScript is a compact , object-based scripting language for developing client and server internet applications. Netscape Navigator 2.0 interprets JavaScript statements embedded directly in an HTML page. and Livewire enables you to create server-based applications similar to common gateway interface(cgi) programs. In a client application for Navigator, JavaScript statements embedded in an HTML Page can recognize and respond to user events such as mouse clicks form input, and page navigation. For example, you can write a JavaScript function to verify that users enter valid information into a form requesting a telephone number or zip code . Without any network transmission, an Html page with embedded Java Script can interpret the entered text and alert the user with a message dialog if the input is invalid or you can use JavaScript to perform an action (such as play an audio file, execute an applet, or communicate with a plug-in) in response to the user opening or existing a page.

  • 89. 89 TESTING Testing is a process, which reveals errors in the program. It is the major quality measure employed during software development. During software development. During testing, the program is executed with a set of test cases and the output of the program for the test cases is evaluated to determine if the program is performing as it is expected to perform. TESTING IN STRATEGIES In order to make sure that the system does not have errors, the different levels of testing strategies that are applied at differing phases of software development are: Unit Testing: Unit Testing is done on individual modules as they are completed and become executable. It is confined only to the designer's requirements. Each module can be tested using the following two Strategies: Black Box Testing: In this strategy some test cases are generated as input conditions that fully execute all functional requirements for the program. This testing has been uses to find errors in the following categories: Incorrect or missing functions Interface errors Errors in data structure or external database access Performance errors Initialization and termination errors. In this testing only the output is checked for correctness. The logical flow of the data is not checked.
  • 90. 90 White Box testing : In this the test cases are generated on the logic of each module by drawing flow graphs of that module and logical decisions are tested on all the cases. It has been uses to generate the test cases in the following cases:  Guarantee that all independent paths have been Executed.  Execute all logical decisions on their true and false Sides.  Execute all loops at their boundaries and within their operational bounds  Execute internal data structures to ensure their validity. Integrating Testing : Integration testing ensures that software and subsystems work together a whole. It tests the interface of all the modules to make sure that the modules behave properly when integrated together. System Testing: Involves in-house testing of the entire system before delivery to the user. It's aim is to satisfy the user the system meets all requirements of the client's specifications. Acceptance Testing : It is a pre-delivery testing in which entire system is tested at client's site on real world data to find errors. Test Approach : Testing can be done in two ways: Bottom up approach Top down approach Bottom up Approach: Testing can be performed starting from smallest and lowest level modules and proceeding one at a time. For each module in bottom up testing a short program executes the module and provides the needed data so that the module is asked to perform the way it will
  • 91. 91 when embedded with in the larger system. When bottom level modules are tested attention turns to those on the next level that use the lower level ones they are tested individually and then linked with the previously examined lower level modules. Top down approach: This type of testing starts from upper level modules. Since the detailed activities usually performed in the lower level routines are not provided stubs are written. A stub is a module shell called by upper level module and that when reached properly will return a message to the calling module indicating that proper interaction occurred. No attempt is made to verify the correctness of the lower level module. Validation: The system has been tested and implemented successfully and thus ensured that all the requirements as listed in the software requirements specification are completely fulfilled. In case of erroneous input corresponding error messages are displayed SYSTEM SECURITY Setting Up Authentication for Web Applications Introduction: To configure authentication for a Web Application, use the <login-config> element of the web.xml deployment descriptor. In this element you define the security realm containing the user credentials, the method of authentication, and the location of resources for authentication. SECURITY IN SOFTWARE: To set up authentication for Web ApplIcations: 1. Open the web.xml deployment descriptor in a text editor or use the Administration Console. Specify the authentication method using the <auth-method> element. The available options are:
  • 92. 92 BASIC : Basic authentication uses the Web Browser to display a username/password dialog box. This username and password is authenticated against the realm. FORM: Form-based authentication requires that you return an HTML form containing the username and password. The fields returned from the form elements must be: j_username and j_password, and the action attribute must be j_security_check. Here is an example of the HTML coding for using FORM authentication: <form method="POST" action="j_security_check"> <input type="text" name="j_username"> <input type="password" name="j_password"> </form> The resource used to generate the HTML form may be an HTML page, a JSP, or a servlet. You define this resource with the <form-login-page> element. The HTTP session object is created when the login page is served. Therefore, the session.isNew () method returns FALSE when called from pages served after successful authentication.

  • 94. 94 CONCLUSION: The past decade has seen a growing interest in using graphical passwords as an alternative to the traditional text-based passwords. In this paper, we have conducted a comprehensive survey of existing graphical password techniques. The current graphical password techniques can be classified into two categories: recognition-based and recall-based techniques. Although the main argument for graphical passwords is that people are better at memorizing graphical passwords than text-based passwords, the existing user studies are very limited and there is not yet convincing evidence to support this argument. Our preliminary analysis suggests that it is more difficult to hack graphical passwords with the traditional attacking methods like brute force search, Dictionary search or spyware. However, since there is not yet wide deployment of Graphical Password systems, the vulnerabilities of Graphical Passwords are not fully understood. Overall, the current graphical password techniques are still immature. Much more research and user studies are needed for graphical password techniques to achieve higher levels of maturity and usefulness. ENHANCEMENT: Information and computer security is supported largely by passwords which are the principle part of the authentication process. The most common computer authentication method is to use alphanumerical username and password which has significant drawbacks. To overcome the vulnerabilities of traditional methods, visual or graphical password schemes have been developed as possible alternative solutions to text-based scheme. A potential drawback of graphical password schemes is that they are more vulnerable to shoulder surfing than conventional alphanumeric text passwords. When users input their passwords in a public place, they may be at risk of attackers stealing their password. An attacker can capture a password by direct observation or by recording the individual’ s authentication session. This is referred to as shoulder-surfing and is a known risk, of special concern when authenticating in public places. In this paper we will present a survey on graphical password schemes from 2005 till 2009which are proposed to be resistant against shoulder surfing attacks.
  • 95. 95 SHOULDER SURFING: In Computer security Shoulder surfing refers to using direct observation techniques, such as looking over someone's shoulder, to get information. Shoulder surfing is particularly effective in crowded places because it is relatively easy to observe someone as they:  fill out a form  enter their PIN at an automated teller machine or a POSterminal  use a calling card at a public pay phone  enter passwords at a cybercafé, public and university libraries, or airport kiosks.  enter a code for a rented locker in a public place such as a swimming pool or airport . Shoulder surfing can also be done at a distance using binoculars or other vision-enhancing devices. Inexpensive, miniature closed circuit television cameras can be concealed in ceilings, walls or fixtures to observe data entry. 3D-PASSWORDS: Due to this I would like to enhance my software using 3D PASSWORDS in which, to get authenticated ONE needs to navigate a 3D Virtual environment and has to get interacted to various 3D objects. The sequence of actions and interactions toward the objects inside the 3-D environment constructs the user’s 3-D password. The 3-D password can combine most existing authentication schemes such as textual passwords, graphical passwords, and various types of biometrics into a 3-D virtual environment. The design of the 3-D virtual environment and the type of objects selected determine the 3-D password key space.
