Origin Story
Few years back I was myself facing the issues managing online accounts and passwords. During that time my spouse's best buy account got hacked and some body made fraudulent purchase. I was very much annoyed and was looking to do something. One day my son was scribbling his name in different colors. Even after I erased it from white board it was still in my mind for many days.
That gave me an idea, what if my password is colorful. No one can guess what colors I choose and how I draw.
Being having statistics and mathematics background, I did more research and found something very very exciting and surprising. I had ended up creating password that was more than 500 times stronger than conventional password. I made some mockups and prototype software and patented my idea.
Now I am gradated from Microsoft Cloud Accelerator, have my solutions on password, zero-trust and mfa certified and listed on Microsoft Appsource and App Gallery.
So never ignore any idea, just pursue it and see, you may find something big that solves universal problem.
