What's more difficult to add to the dictionary before hand are things more like
"samisacorrecthorsebatterystaple". Once you add in proper nouns, the practicality of pre-loading compounds doesn't work as well, since there's so many proper nouns. Plus proper nouns are often more memorable because they have meaning to the person who wrote the password.
- yabadabadoes 7y agoIf I were building a dictionary I would simply do an analysis with no punctuation of media to get frequent compound strands, brands, names, etc.. Common names, etc would IMO be very frequent compared to a foreign loan word, like samovar. So once the rules are lax for password choice, the crack patterns are again julieisborninjuly or what not and the weak users are back in a very small search space.
