How to Choose a Password?
i can see people are making bad passwords that other people they can find it out easy and stole account.................red the following to help you chose a good password.............. .
good password is one that's hard to guess, yet easy to remember. So here are the top 10 ways to choose a password, in roughly increasing difficulty. If you don't use any of the first 5, you're well on your way. The stats are very rough estimates (for comparison purposes, an 8-character password is used for most calculations):
Default (same as none):
Many programs and services assign a default password . Change this to a new password immediately.
examples: password, superuser
10 Common passwords:
god, love, lust, money, private, qwerty, secret, sex, snoopy, & (surprise!) password
Personal info:
your name, initials, location (zip code), birthday, pets, license plate
family/friend's names (including maiden), locations, birthdays, pets
word/number combinations of any of the above
Ego-related; examples: guru, master, wizard
Favorite: Music (group names, albums), Fiction/Nonfiction/Comic books/characters, Movie/TV/Cartoon characters & titles
Dumb Hollywood movie-people think all passwords are of this variety
Categories:
Double-words; examples: kittykitty, johnjohn
Funny/nonsense/jargon words; examples: wassup, bzzzzz, foobar
Insults; examples: biteme, eatdirt
Keyboard sequences; examples: asdfg, qweasd, poiqwe
Obscene words; examples: (use your imagination)
Passwords based on host name (for people with lots of passwords)
for example, if the system is named 'cat' an obvious password is catpass
Reversals; examples: terces, wordpass, nhojnhoj
Mixed-case Word with Number(s)
examples: 9fiNgeRS, loVELy68
stats: Tacking on a number from 0-9 before or after a word gives 20 more variations to the password. Using 00-99 before or after the word, gives 200 variations. Guesstimate: there's some 19,000 6-letter words, and 243 million variations (19,000 x 64 x 200) of 6-letter-word 2-number passwords.
Mixed-case Word(s)/Letter(s)
Combining words and/or extra letters
examples: GUessTHis, BiKeFisH
stats: We're talking pretty big numbers here. Around 53 trillion (528) 8-letter mixed-case passwords (i.e. aaaaaaaa, aaaaaaaA, aaaaaaAa, ..., ZZZZZZZZ)
Mixed-case Words/Numbers/Letters
examples: No50WaY2, puT863MoX
variant: Hacker/IRC/License-plate jargon
examples: H4x0rD00dZ, UR2good4Me, FXR1stR8
stats: OK, my mind's swimming, there's somewhere around 218 trillion (628) 8-letter/number passwords
It takes an average of 5 seconds to crack this kind of password on a Windows machine; considerably longer on BSD or Linux.
Random characters
examples: qs3UIs82, k38#0J$dA
note: some programs and services only allow letters and numbers, some include dashes ('-'); the best allow any character
stats: Assuming 94 'type-able' characters, there's 6 gazillion (948 = 6.1 quadrillion [US]) different 8-character passwords. There's not as many 7-character passwords, but there's some 9-character ones still available, if you hurry.
No password is uncrackable.
The best you can do is make it difficult and non-trivial to determine your password.
What's the worst password? The one you've forgotten.
Whatever method you choose, it's a good idea to change your password often.
The more important the password, the more often it should be changed.
Why? If someone is attempting a brute-force attack on your password, the hope is that you're changing it to something they've already tried and found to be wrong.
The longer the password, the harder it is to 'guess.'
note: many systems limit passwords to 8 characters.
Some clever people are foregoing brute-force hacks (e.g. dictionary attacks), in favor of 'social engineering' to obtain passwords.
If somebody calls or emails, requesting your password, it's a dumb idea to give it to them.
Of course nobody would sticky-note a password to their monitor, or under a keyboard.
