- LadyCailin 4y agoFor this type of encryption, I think the password could be “password” and that would be good enough. The primary goal is to frustrate automated scans, not targeted brute force attempts.
- sreevisakh 4y agoThat's a problem with very easy solutions, considering what's at stake. Use a paperkey, NFC card, smartcard or even a printed data matrix sheet to store the keys and/or password DBs. The reason why all these aren't popular enough is that people don't consider privacy to be important - until something goes seriously wrong, like in this story.
