Abstract: An agent running on an IoT device of a client's network may receive a default password from a provider network and use the received default password to determine whether the password assigned to the IoT device has been changed from the default password to a different one. The agent may retrieve a salt string, a hashing algorithm, and a hashed string from a password database of the IoT device, combine the salt string with the received default password to generate a salted default password, and apply the hashing algorithm to the salted default password to generate a new hashed string. The agent may then compare the new hashed string to the hashed string retrieved from the password database. If they match, then the agent sends an indication to the provider network that the default password is still assigned to the IoT device.

Abstract: Various systems and methods are provided for using dummy characters to provide enhanced security of a user's login credentials. The functionality disclosed herein provides specific steps for the creation, evaluation, storage, and use of such dummy characters in conjunction with a user's login credentials.

Dummy characters can be associated with a specific user and/or a specific device or devices associated with a specific user. The functionality provided herein prevents a nefarious actor from simply repeating an entire password string (including the dummy characters) on a device that is not associated with the user whose credentials the nefarious actor is attempting to misappropriate.
