there are easy ways to create passwords
that are long and strong and easy to
remember that are not based on
information that attackers can easily
find about you and the way that we do
that is we use word lists and dice word
list essentially just a long list of
dictionary words with numbers attached
preaw prepaid so what we're going to do
is we're going to write down the numbers
on this dice
45263 my new lucky numbers and now now
we are going to look up 4 five 263 in
this book so there are words that
correlate to the numbers that I just
randomly rolled yes okay I want a cool
word like tiger the word is preo preo
pre-o three 4 1 one five henna okay I
like this the idea behind this dice game
is that it's both random and
long hackers using fast powerful
computers and sophisticated password
cracking software are able to try many
many passwords a second a recent study
by a security firm showed that a seven
character password can be cracked in
just a few seconds but a 12 character
password with uppercase letters and
symbols is much more difficult to break
studies show it could take hackers well
over a 100 years to crack that's safe
but also more difficult to type or
remember Eva six-word random passphrase
is easier to remember than a random
string of 12 characters and practically
impossible to break stinging
ignition six is clutch clutch okay pre-o
henna stinging ignition clutch handbrake
fantastic now you have a past phrase
these six words it is long it's Unique
it's difficult to guess and it's
relatively easy to remember considering
how long it is it is a very good way of
creating random passwords but a lot of
password managers will automatically do
this for

you once you have a passphrase you can
use this to unlock a password manager
that generates strong random passwords
and stores them securely
