You are using the defaults, which is what you should be using, as

Another possibility is to write down encrypted passwords and don't
disclose encryption technique. The rot13 is worthless.

While that can help on websites, it is
another possibility is use of a dictionary. Find a word in dictionary
note page column and line. Divide pages in dictionary by 2 and either add
or subtract that number of pages to or from page word is found on then on
the new page find the column and line for your actual password. Of

I generate random passwords using dice. First and last characters in
passwords are letters that's arbitrary buys more time. Those should have
lengths over 13 and before the agency I used to work for went to
smartcards and 256 character random passwords their last standard was 16

There was this TV series Sherlock. In one episode they communicated by
numbers where each number referred to a word in a book. This was

Howdy,
As some know, I encrypt a lot of stuff here. I use passwords that I can
recall but no one could ever guess. I don't use things that someone may
figure out like pet's name or anything like that. I use a couple sites
to see just how good my passwords are. I try to get into the millions
