Write Down Your Password – Schneier on Security
- eridius 9y agoTo be clear, this advice is from 2005. I'm pretty sure if you asked Schneier today he'd recommend a password manager instead of pieces of paper.

- burntrelish1273 9y agoChanging long master passwords/passphrases can be tricky. Write them down on a small piece of paper and keep it until you'd remember it correctly if you were very tired or very drunk. Changing once a year is about right, and rotate all other passwords too. Be sure your pwd mgr backs-up old passwords and the pwr mgr file is backed-up to alternate locations and cloud or backup keeps some past versions of files.
- cholantesh 9y agoI thought password rotation wasn't considered a best practice: https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/11/changing_passwo.html https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/11/changing_pass...
