Does ‘Digital Computing’ sound warm-hearted to us? — Probably NO for most of us.

Do we feel cold-hearted when we watch the pictures of our pets taken when they were puppies and kittens? — Probably NO for most of us.

What if you pick up such heart-warming pictures as your login passwords when booting your cold computers? You feel your stress of digital life largely mitigated, don’t you? — Probably YES for most of you.

Besides the higher security and better usability, this is another benefit of making use of our episodic memory as the source of secret credentials for identity assurance.

Our own pleasant episodic memory has the power of alleviating our anxiety, as referred to in this post — “Anxiety-Easing Effect of Your Episodic Memory” as Cybersecurity https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hitoshikokumai_try-this-different-but-effective-way-to-deal-activity-6910386605811802112-Wym3

As such, with our own episodic memory, we will be able to say goodbye to a boring, tiresome, troublesome and often torturous and yet vulnerable text-only password login, while avoiding the suicidal folly of ditching the essential secret credentials altogether.
