Title: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: dserrano5 on July 10, 2013, 02:49:11 PM This post by AliceWonder:
Yup, the very first password I ever created when I first got my own internet connection, little did I know it happened to be identical to a part number of a popular ham radio component. I never played with ham radios. When I was playing around with cracking tools (I think it was jtr) and it was quickly cracked, I was shocked to see it was in the dictionary and when I investigated, the dictionary had been made from an electronic parts catalog. Granted by today's standards it is way too short even without being in a dictionary (7 alphanumeric characters) but still. made me remember my first password, a stunning one for its military grade security: "4besos" (translates to "4kisses"). Do you remember the first password you've ever used (and presumably the worst one at the same time)? Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password?

Totally secure, right? Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: RoadToHell on July 10, 2013, 10:10:26 PM Not 100% sure, but it was most likely "bluegreen" or something tough like that.
As a consultant, I came across more than one client system with variations on "password". Some examples "p@ssw0rd", "p@55w0rd", etc. These clients included both government and private entities; the passwords were used on data containing financial and personal data including social security numbers, addresses, and account numbers. I changed them where allowed - and kept a CYA paper trail of my denied requests where I couldn't. Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: g83 on July 10, 2013, 10:12:03 PM worstpassword

I use securely generated 20+ char passes now, I'm bad with thinking up random stuff. Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: wachtwoord on July 12, 2013, 04:51:55 PM username ;) Not "wachtwoord"? Which means password in Dutch. ;D Nah, my username was password and my password was username. I later started using the dutch equivalent of the username and improved my password :) Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: Mike Christ on July 12, 2013, 05:27:52 PM "12345"
I was young when I first started Interneting. But then I wised up and started using "12345six" Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: fm1234 on July 12, 2013, 07:28:49 PM posted by MikeChrist:

Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: Damnsammit on July 12, 2013, 07:35:53 PM my very first password for CompuServe was "wallet"
I was 6 and just got a cool new velcro TMNT wallet so I figured that was a superb password. Title: Re: Your oldest/worst password? Post by: Lethn on July 12, 2013, 07:37:06 PM I think I followed the stupid faq and guide stuff on making passwords as well as what other people had said to me and on of my oldest friends just went and logged into my games and stuff really easily because she knew me that well LOL I know much better now. The last thing you should ever do is enter real information into a database or passwords it makes it piss easy to hack into, this is why I hate our current systems so much because they don't know anything about security.
