Choosing Best password
 

There are many softwares that crack your password in 10 seconds with the help of dicionary.
So,

Select password that is not in dicionary.

For example :

"Waqas Ahmed"

or you can mix two words :

HenCock

Best password can be select by mixing upper keyboard word by lower with numerics.

Example : 5xBM34z

If any software want to crack this password, it require the duration of 238years.

3------------2sec-------------------1min
4------------1min-------------------2.5hr
5------------20min------------------9days
6------------8.7hr-------------------2years


IS THIS INFORMATION HELPFUL, SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON POOL.

Re: Choosing Best password
 

Good!
But there is another method of cracking passwords and is more effective
'Brute Force'. It takes time but shows results ...

So there is no way out to remain protected on simple sites that does not have brute force protection..

Bzupages has brute force protection . eg: when anyone tries to use brute force (only 5 tries of login) it automaticaly blocks login requests from that PC (IP) for 15 days...

I think you did not read carefully ..................?
I am not telling about sites at all, you are going something networking attack like thing.
I am only telling about windows and simple file or folders passwords.

OK

somewhat your point is good that you can hack the password without dictionary, that is by attacking.

But my point is for choosing a good password.
