Comment on Security expert reveals surprising way to make your password stronger: use emojis
bnfdhfdhfd@lemmy.world 11 months agoSo those annoying as hell “6 character, lowercase and uppercase letters, special character” passwords give a full 8 minutes of protection. Good to know.

For 6 characters is 5 seconds. I like the idea of using passphrases that mix casing with symbols but still they look like like real words, it make easier to write them down when you need them and they can be very long, so they are quite secure, of course using a password manager to be able to manage them.

Damn, even worse than I thought. I wish someone would show this to the people who set those ridiculous password requirements.
I was glad when my work did away with monthly password changes and went with 15 characters minimum as the only requirement.
