Password best practices
- by pcampbell
Given the recent events with a 'hacker' learning and retrying passwords from website administrators, what can we suggest to everyone about best practices when it comes to passwords?
use unique passwords between sites (i.e. never re-use a password)
words found in the dictionary are to be avoided
consider using words or phrases from a non-English language
use pass phrases and use the first letter of each word
l33tifying doesn't help very much
