> Any estimate on the time to crack the remaining 15%?
I know of at least one person on LinkedIn using passwords of the form 2jzAwGyOzfxNoW0u3lTIIa (i.e., 22 digits & mixed-case letters); calculating 209.7 million hashes per second he should be able to crack his first one of that sort of password in about 182,686,540 years.
I cordially wish him the best.
- bigiain 10y agoAnybody using a modern password safe should be in exactly that position. I use 1Password and default to 25chars including upper/lower/digits/specials. It's occasionally annoying when I need to transcribe one of those passwords from my phone into a system I trust but not enough to keep my password safe on (my work laptop, for example), butthat's rare enough that I just suck it up and cope.
