> The most common password is "Password".
There was a time when computer repairmen would come to your data center to do your systems maintenance for you. They invariably had a standing password for your, and everybody else's, gear. How do I know? The first time I ever experienced a hack was on April Fool's Day, 1986, when the DEC field engineer password was used by some humorous sort to log in to the Harvard computing facility that I nominally ran and change the text "HARVARD" to "YALE" on every document throughout every system. I couldn't stop laughing for a week. Profs with grants due were not amused. And here we all are on New Year's Eve. --dan _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
