What about having your own pattern for upper case and lower case in the words ? Like, say, every 3rd letter of the words you choose will be upper. hoRse or baT

Like, say, every 3rd letter of the words you choose will be upper.
hoRse or baTtery etc...
- mediocrejoker 9y agoSomeone who actually studies this stuff can maybe correct me but I think this adds only a single bit of entropy (multiplies the possible combinations by 2) and thus is almost negligible.
- Avernar 9y agoNope, it's one bit extra entropy per character. The attacker must try all possible capitilazations of each word (horse, Horse, hOrse, HOrse, etc). You've doubled the character set so it's not negligable.
