I got a similar idea when I saw this link. But I think it would be better to have it as a browser extension that automatically hashes the password/passphrase for you, depending upon the site. Different salt for different website, that changes on the click of a button(to deal with enforced password expiration, or password changes), and maybe a different hashing algorithm for different levels of sites.
- marshallford 14y agoI don't no why you would want to use a different type of hashing. As for the changing passwords issue you could bump your sitename. For example... site: 1twitter site: bump-facebook Just use a bumping method, it isn't the best... but it works. You could always change the number of characters around also.
- elssar 14y agoCould use different passwords for different levels, no need to different hashing algorithms. And its pretty much the same thing isn't it - different salt vs bumping the site name.
- marshallford 14y agoDifferent levels still doesn't work when changing your password. If twitter made me change my password, it wouldn't increase or decrease on my level of importance scale.
- elssar 14y agoThe idea is to have one password, with a salt(or service name) for all services. To make it a little more secure, you could set up different levels - email and social, news sites, games..., basically any way you want to do it, and have a different passphrase for each level. When changing passwords, you just need to change the salt of that particular service.
