Happy Tech Support Thursday!
Today, we’re going to talk about password strength… which all began with this comic from xkcd, posted by my friend Ben on his Google+:
password strength from xkcd.com
So, I wanted to ask you about how strong your password is. To be honest, I’ve never thought about passwords the way that xkcd shows up here. Most of the jobs that I’ve worked at have required a password with a symbol, a number and at least 8 characters.
I wonder how much time I could have saved by just putting in something like this.
How strong is your password?
Check it here.
We use 16 character long passwords, w/ special characters, numbers, upper and lower case, ice cream, DNA, squirrels and small children.
Why?
Because the government says so.
Oi.
this is awesome. : )
it’s hard to come up with different passwords as some have different requirements…!
