I regularly use hunter2 as the example or test value for passwords/keys. I wonder how many other people do this, and how many times it's accidentally leaked into production...
- Camillo 7y agoIt is a pretty good password. Just "hunter" is no good because it has no digits, so of course you'd add a "1"... but wait! It's actually a 2! That's the pro security twist the hackers won't expect.

- Buttons840 7y agoIt will take twice as long to crack, because hackers will have to try all letter combinations ending in 1 first.
- slyall 7y agoI've got the devs using "password123" as the default in code because that value gets over-written. Freaks me out every time I see it and I'm trying to get them to use "overwritten_on_deploy" or something similar.
