Claim One:
1. A processor-implemented method for determining a password strength, the method comprising: receiving, by a processor, a user-entered password; identifying a keyboard layout type associated with a keyboard utilized to enter the received user-entered password; mapping each character within a plurality of characters in the received user-entered password to a corresponding location on a grid associated with the identified keyboard layout type; determining a coordinate sequence associated with the received user-entered password based on the mapped plurality of characters; applying a pattern recognition algorithm to the determined coordinate sequence; determining a password strength based on the applied pattern recognition algorithm and comparing the determined coordinate sequence of the received user-entered password with a previous password coordinate sequence, wherein the determined password strength will be weak when the determined coordinate sequence is the same as the previous password coordinate sequence; and displaying the determined password strength to a user on a graphical user interface associated with a user device.
