Some weeks ago, a dpa reporter called me for some information about how to create secure passwords. I recieved her attention by an article at mathias-bank.de: well sounding passwords. I told her, what surely everybody should know about passwords:
- use long passwords…
- use small and big letters…
- use numbers and special characters and
- never use the same password at different pages (md5 password cracking)
It should be also known, that passwords will never be secure. It is just a matter of time.
Well, now, the article is public at several pages: stern.de, n-tv, netzzeitung and many more.
I think, I could be really proud of, but I would never call myself an internet expert! I just try to understand my business!
