Here’s a password strategy I began using that allows me to commit every password to memory while keeping them unique (I don’t trust pw managers):
Letters representing the service + Constant text + year + constant ascii
E.g for this site it could be "hackblabla2020__#"
Then for email it could be "emaiblabla2020__#"
Then it also forces me to change it once a year-ish
- CJefferson 6y agoIf someone really cared about hacking you, and one of those websites has a clear text password dump (which happens all the time), you are in serious trouble.
- teetertater 6y agoI figured if someone really cared about hacking me I'd be screwed anyway. I should add that my most important accounts don't follow this pattern
- fingerlocks 6y agoI hope Constant Text is quite large, because otherwise you just announced the majority of your password to all of your logins. Consider deleting this post?
- teetertater 6y agoThanks for the concern. The examples I gave don't follow the real patterns/orders/Ascii I use
