Password In C
Why Password Masking?
Password masking is a very vital in login page. It involves a text field which accepts any character however doesn't show the inputted character to the user. Instead it reflect with dot or any user defined special character for every key pressed by the user.
C Program - Password Masking
Let us write a c program to Mask the user pressing keys.
c-password-masking.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main()
{
char password[10], username[10], ch;
int i, j;
printf("Email id : ");
gets(username);
printf("Password : ");
for(i = 0;i < 100;i++)
{
ch = getch();
if(ch == 13)
break;
password[i] = ch;
ch = '*' ;
printf("%c ", ch);
}
password[i] = '\0';
printf("\nYour password is hacked : ");
for(j = 0;j < i;j++)
printf("%c ", password[j]);
return 0;
}
Email id : example@gmail.com Password : *********** Your password is hacked: 2braces.com
Note:
Here we used array to store user entered Name and Password. Every single characters of user entered password are gotten by getch() and stored in array Password[], simultaneously we are outputting with '*'.
