I realise that this is a trade off between security and convenience, but at that kind of time frame to crack, I would argue that convenience comes out on top. ![]() What, if any, are the security aspects of having a singe password of 16 or more digits, of all types, one that I can remember, for all my sites? The word seems to be that it would take 1 trillion years to crack that password. In addition, some sites I've used, have asked for old password before requiring entry of a new one. I am left then with trying to log into those sites one at a time, and using the "Forgot Password" facility. My concern is what happens if LastPass (or any other password manager) somehow crashes or goes out of business leaving me with 60 passwords I can't remember. I have one very secure and memorable password to open LastPass, and 60+ reasonably secure passwords on all the other sites. I have 60+ sites for which I have passwords stored in LastPass. ![]() I often see this quoted on numerous sites, and while I can see the purpose for this, I have one very serious reservation. "Never use the same password on more than one site." Endpoint Detection & Response for Servers
