Re: frustrate shouldservers

Hi! My only comment is that i am not a mathematics so that would be to complicated for me. I am more like an philosofic linguist and have lots of strange words sometimes popping up in my head. I guess i rather use a password generator or password manager. /A > 5 feb. 2017 kl. 04:19 skrev Eric

I still think the most secure password is the one you don't have to store anywhere other than in your brain. Any stored password, even the one on paper, can be stolen and compromised. However, I don't think anyone has yet found a way to steal passwords by reading thoughts. That said, any

oh yeah. you would need a Bot net for that. Then again, guessing at over 2 quadrillion password combinations (50 characters) will still take a rather long time. -eric from the central office of the Technomage Guild On Feb 3, 2017, at 10:35 AM, Janina Sajka wrote: > Sure, but how long to try

here is another one for you. there is another utility called "jive". take your original passphrase, run it through that and then use that to generate a hash. good luck guessing that one. :) -eric from the central office of the Technomage Guild On Feb 3, 2017, at 10:25 AM, Janina Sajka wrote:

This has been a very good thread. I have one additional suggestion which is to add something you personally know, but that could not be guessed very easily, nor exposed by a dictionary attack. I find alternative, non standard phonetic spellings helpful this way. Even better are obscure, obsolete

When using a password generator it can help to pick a password from a list shown but not key it in or store it in the same way it appears on the screen. Several scrambling possibilities exist probably only limited by the imaginations of those picking the new passwords. It's just a matter of
