Password Audit

[cellboy]

During a recent password audit by our company, it was found that a blond was using the following password:

MickeyMinniePlutoHueyLouieDeweyDonaldGoofy

When asked why such a big password, she said she was told it had to be at least 8 characters.
PS: If you're blonde and don't get it, just pass this on and don't give it another thought, bless your little heart.

At one place I worked, one of the secretaries was a bit of a scatterbrain. We had to make her password her initials - "MG" - followed by the numbers "123".

She still had to write it on a Post-It and stick it on her monitor.

LOL!

Well, joke aside, (I did groan) it's not a bad password… not really prone to a dictionary attack.

I've often found I can remember "pass phrases" better than I can remember some strange random combination of glyphs.

I actually thought the same thing. Though I would pick a shorter phrase; Hewy, Dewly and Lewy, or Alvin, Simon,Theodore, or Ick, Ack, or Larry, Harry, Mo or bigolbottom O-o
