Poor passwords are guessed regularly.

WordPress.com staff use and recommend Keepass (free, Windows/Linux/Mac) and 1password ($35, Mac).

Oh dear

monkey?

I’m gonna make that the root password on my linux box. I was so tired of typing all those symbols and numbers and hitting the shift key a zillion times.

(ok, not really, I know if I tried to do that it wouldn’t let me because it’s a dictionary word)

“And if you think no-one will hack you, that’s fine. Just don’t say anything when it happens.

Your data. Your responsibility.”

Yeah really. I could really guess some passwords now.

“For the one who has the random number and the random letter combined in several, they are the one who may have the chance unlikely of being hacked into thus.”

I don’t know what the hell I just said…oh well, protect your password.

And remember: NO Dungeons and Dragons-related passwords! No LOTR either!

For my financial websites, I often use a username that is itself a “strong” password. Of course, the password is also “strong.” This means that I am incapable of accessing my accounts without a password management program such as roboform or 1passwd. But it is a sacrifice I am willing to make in the name of national security. (I do not look forward to the day when I have to reset my password because I’ve lost my password management program(s)… my security questions are all “strong” passwords. Everything is random.
