The set of characters that are usually used to compose passwords is very wide. These are lowercase and uppercase English letters, numbers from zero to nine, special characters. There are a lot of options for passwords. But for some reason, many users prefer to compose light passwords of 4-6 characters, which are easy to crack. The point is that people are simply afraid to forget their passwords. Let's figure out how to compose a complex and long password and at the same time put it aside in your memory forever.
Instructions
Step 1
Of course, with age, memory deteriorates and begins to act selectively. Something can be remembered for a lifetime, while another fact will immediately fly out of my head. So it turns out that passwords of eight characters are forgotten quickly, but long poems are remembered from school and for life.
Step 2
And why not try to fetch some familiar poem from your memory in order to compose a complex and at the same time easy to remember password on its basis. You won't even have to remember anything here, because all the information you need is in your memory. Let's take popular lines from Pushkin's poem and practice making passwords for them:
The storm covers the sky with darkness, Whirling snow whirlwinds.
How a beast she will howl
It will cry like a child.
Step 3
Now leave only the first letters of each word and write them in a row without spaces on one line. It will turn out: BmnkVskTkzozTzkd. Now write the same thing on the English keyboard:
Step 4
You can complicate the task: do not exclude punctuation marks to get "Bmnk, Vsk. Tkzoz, Tzkd." In the English layout, you will get “
Step 5
Well, another way to complicate such a password is to come up with a character replacement system. For example, the letter "v" can be replaced with the number 5, because the Roman counterpart of this number is drawn in the same way as this letter. The character "b" is similar to the number 6, the letter "l" is easy to replace with the number 1, and so on.
Step 6
You can also use special programs to generate complex passwords. But in this case, you will have to provide the password to another program. After all, it can be a completely meaningless set of symbols, which is almost impossible to remember by yourself. Of course, there are people who, among "Pi", remember many tens of digits after the decimal point, but this is a unique and extremely rare phenomenon. The programmatic method is pretty good since you don't have to memorize anything yourself. But this method is good only until the first reinstallation of the operating system or until the moment when it is necessary to connect to the "password-protected" service from another computer.
