El Presidente Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 This is for a Cohiba Robusto bet. How good is your password protocol .........come on.....no one is going to know
Chibearsv Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I use a different password for each of the hundred or so services I admin. Good news is as admin, I can easily reset myself when I forget them. 1
BoliDan Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I use a password manager, but my password to get in to it is my generic 10 alphanum that I've used for over a decade... I fail 2
gustavehenne Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I rotate between random years and random Eastern European towns (replacing some letters with numbers) that I've got zero connection with and then some random special characters. That being said, it's all a waste of time - use multi-factor authentication with everything!! 1
BrightonCorgi Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Tiered password complexity based on the sensitivity of the site. 3

Miner Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I have one pass word (14782) that I use for everything Ooops !! 4
Cigar Surgeon Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I use a password manager and I'm almost at the point where I'm going to use 2 factor with a password token like a YubiKey. 3
ha_banos Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I've got 2fa wherever I can have it. Even on my Jetbrains account.... Why!? I use a different email address for every service too. Yes it's a pain. When are we doing away with passwords again? 1

Check. Dashlane w/ 2FA is my secrets manager of choice. All passwords are 17+ characters with all possible complications enabled - machine generated and random for each and every service. For those that use different passwords based on the sensitivity of the service: don't forget that someone breaching and collecting data from a "less sensitive" service can furnish a bad actor with enough info to break into a more sensitive service. Using a specific password for each service be it banking, an adult site, or your local little league is the only way to silo out that login data and increase your overall attack resiliency. 1
Jack Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Google tells me what password to use and I listen, good sheep that I am. 2
Chris P. Bacon Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 I use my girlfriend’s name with some numbers. My wife or anyone else will ever know! 🤣 2
Fuzz Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 My passwords depend on the level of security needed. For work, my passwords are complicated, using non-standard words and spelling intermixed with special characters. For run of the mill stuff, but access to payment, passwords are still complicated, but not as long. For other accounts, I use throw away email addresses and passwords that I rotate through. Oddly enough, I still use a password I created back in 2006 for one of my accounts. 1
GVan Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Minimum 15 characters - I take a portion of the password generated by the software but then always sub in some of my own - usually a random small word with random capitalization or change a few numbers. I don't even trust the random password generators. I will admit to being too lazy to generate a new password monthly or even annually -so, one can ride along for years until there is an issue. The last big issue was several years ago when we were all told to move to at least 13 to 15 unique characters. If it's now 17 characters, I have some work to do ....

I used to work for a large telecom and this was even a decade ago I had a physical keyfob along with a single login for my station. I appreciated not having to keep track of 10+ application passwords with a 120 day non-repeating non-sequential password system like my current employer.
jazzboypro Posted August 15, 2024 Posted August 15, 2024 I use a password manager. I use MFA everywhere and when available the MFA is a hardware key.
wjs Posted August 15, 2024 Posted August 15, 2024 3-4 that are the regular rotation for standard non-monetary sites. 1 that is much longer and complicated for banking. 1
