Today is #WorldPasswordDay! 🤩
Remember:
Frequent and mandatory password changes are STUPID.

- decreases security
- destroys UX
- Waste of time & money

Change at suspected & confirmed breach.

Use 2-factor authentication where available. (Often enabled after 1st breach 😢)
Now if you'd like to deep dive into the topic of passwords, pins, biometrics, 2-factor authentication and more, there is no better place than the #PasswordsCon track @BSidesLV in Las Vegas, August 9-10. 😎

Use unique passwords for each service.
I know, it's hard. Write them down, or use a password manager.

Remember that you can use space in passwords.
I recommend using simple, positive sentences that you WANT to remember as your password, or passphrase as we like to call it.

OMG 2M subscribers for @SimoneGiertz as a Xmas present. Go go go.
I can't because my "Youtube account" is locked because I never use it thus "it's hacked" and then my "real account" was deemed spam because I commented on two #passwordscon streams with time codes to each talk. Which triggered a spam filter.
Well unless they count RSS subs. Then I've been subbed for years (youtube.com/feeds/videos.x…)
