This research paper introduces SecretCentric, an innovative automated hardware-based password management system addressing the challenges of widely used password authentication methods, which have long been criticized for their poor performance. Password management plays a crucial role in protecting users' digital security and privacy, with key factors including password generation, storage, renewal, and reuse mitigation. Although numerous password managers and solutions have been introduced to tackle these challenges, password management automation has never been thoroughly explored. This study aims to revolutionize the field by eliminating the burden of manual password management from users by automating the entire process. Upon concluding a comprehensive survey, insights into user perceptions of password management and prevalent malpractices were identified. SecretCentric was designed to maximize the security and usability trade-off aligning with identified user expectations. Preliminary evaluations indicate that SecretCentric offers significant improvements over existing options, highlighting the necessity for an automated solution that balances security and usability in the era of increasing online services. The system's success demonstrates the importance of proper password management rather than replacement, contributing to research advancement in user authentication and credential management.
