passwordgenerator 1.5.1
Description
A lot of people with security in mind will use random characters as
passwords like t.J:YuZcTSB=4z*v. We feel it’s
secure because it’s complicated. But the
password above is as difficult as abcdefghijkl!123 for a machine to
brute force even though it’s a lot easier for a user to remember.
This program attempts to create passwords truly difficult for a computer
to brute force and easier to remember for a user.
Each password contains:
3 words from the english dictionary
1 random number placed at a random position
Random separators between words and numbers
It is very secure because…
Since words length differ, the password length is unpredictable
The separators change randomly
The position of the number change randomly
There are 32,000 (words) ^3 (number of words) ^10
(separator) ^10 (separator) ^10 (separator) ^1000
(numbers) different combinations possible
Examples
Here are a few passwords that can be generated:
Coaches_Acquires=Dumbbell_908
28=Haziness_Spatulas+Mortals
Knights;Decrypts%Oatcakes_320
Optimise=472+Deterred%Apricots
375+Hazy%Decorate%Ruler
