No, you forcing me to include a number does not make my password more secure.
Weak password: correcthorsebatterystaplefoobarbaz
Strong password: password1
The worst is when they do that and enforce a maximum password of 8 or 12 characters (I'm looking at you, every bank in the US ever).
- RenierZA 14y agoIs the top password not stronger than the bottom one in your example?
- mike-cardwell 14y agoThat was his point. Web services incorrectly classifying the strength of user supplied passwords.
- mhartl 14y agoThe labels ("strong", "weak") are ironic.
