Unique,Creative passwords?!?

Question

Attention all computer freaks, What is the best way to coming up with a password that can not be easily guessed, or hacked?! is there some kind of code or secret way of coming up with something creative?!

i thought of an example of a good password, "H20UUP2"
(no this is not my pass for ANYTHING, seen it on license plate)

Can u detect what this is ACTUALLY saying?!

Answer 1

Ok this question has plauge computer users for quite some time we all know that passwords should be atleast 4 - 8 charaters long include caps , numbers , not be in the dictionary and be difficult to guess , the problem is how can we use all that and still remember the password , well it's easy Take 2 items from your desk memory names maybe two items you can remember , now take an important date once agian something you can remember now you have three items seprate anyone could guess your password however if you mix them together you have a very long and difficult password for anyone or thing ( program) to guess and you can remember let me give and example

on my desk i have a stuffed cat and a dog and my birthday is in 1976 ( not really) i also like dogs more then cats

if we say dogs are bigger then cats we can change dog to DOG and cats remains the same now also DOGS are better then cats so we start with that

we could make the pass
DOGcat1976 now thats not all that strong so lets mix it up a bit

19DcOaGt76 by intertwinging the letters and putting the first part of the date before everything else and the last part at the end we have a very secure password.

PS. Since you asked for freaks, here you go - 44 minutes on subject of making passwords :P

PS2.
I did some math. 20 character password with all allowed by Yahoo variables (numbers, lower and upper case letters and symbols) utilizing words which cannot be found in dictionary has:
4.42 x 10 to 38th powerof combinations.
If cracker could check 10 quadrilions of combination per second (hope yopu have some NSA super-compter handy) it would still need 59,998,642,005 years to crack such made password :P

Answer 3

the best way of password is to use the combination of Upper, lower case alphabets + number + using some of the special character like (&,.!@# etc).... this will make it hard for the hacker to hack ... bcoz the combination of these things will make it difficult for a hacker... Upper case alphabets(26), lower case alphabets(26), number(10), using special character(let say 10)

now the total numbers of character are 26+26+10+10=72 now there are 2^72=4722366482869645213696 combinations.... which is very difficult for a hacker to search in this many combination...... if you use only lower case alphabet then 2^26=67108864 combination ... an easy task for hacker to search this may combination.....

Answer 4

I use passwords like the initial letters of a sentence that means something to me... like

When I was 14 I had 3 goldfish.

Answer 5

LMAO to each and all of the peeps that dont get it: once you form a password in, you may oftentimes see asterisks ( that are: ******* ) on the show to disguise the password from everyone interior sight.. so in certainty while the toddler got here into the room she observed ***** she thougth the asterisks have been actually her daddy's password. with a bit of luck my rationalization didnt smash the shaggy dog tale..

Answer 6

a good password has a mixture of upper and lower case, at least one symbol (!,?"& etc) and some numbers. try not to include your birthyear tho. you should make it appear as random as possible to someone else yet still mean something to you
