Aye, if we're talking about diceware outputs and large dictionaries, then the passphrase [very likely] has no semantic meaning.
I assumed, perhaps naively, that due to use of the term passphrase we were discussing a sequence of words that might be identified, and thus also likely generated by, an NLP-like system. After all, the ~1b/chr estimate only holds true with English language texts.
- mirimir 7y agoSorry. I used "passphrase" in the sense of "long password". Not meaning that it was a sequence of words. But actually, my LUKS passphrases are sequences of letters and numbers. They're based on favorite quotations. With the standard leet letter->number replacements, and no punctuation or spaces. So they're easy to reconstruct (from my books) if I forget them.
- mirimir 7y agoDamn. I forgot to say that I just use the first letter of each word.
