Abstract: A grid is provided for creating secure and confidential passwords for use in sign-in procedures on electronic user accounts. The tool includes a grid having multiple rows and columns defining cells, with each cell having randomly assigned keyboard characters, such as letters, numbers, and symbols. A user creates a password by selecting a starting cell, and progressing in a user-selected pattern through a pre-selected number of cells. Multiple unique grids may be provided in hard copy or digital form for use in creating multiple passwords which may be created using the same or different starting cells and/or patterns.
