crack this password!

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

It turns out that the "strong" password I've been using for my email accounts was weaker than the one I use for "everyday" websites.

Well, that's according to this evaluation tool. And if you can't trust a website called "Hammer of God" who can you trust?

I've since changed my password from something based on a keyboard walk to something from a song that will allegedly take nearly 17 years for the NSA to crack.

Who said that IT audits were nothing but a problem? I've learned something from every one I've participated in (and hey, I'm getting paid).
