So this password manager walks into a bar…

October 6th, 2009 by Marc

lolOkay – I don’t typically post jokes but I actually heard a joke about passwords today. Considering that there are like four jokes about passwords in the entire world, I thought I’d send this one along. :)

During a recent password audit, it was found that a <insert favorite moronic social group> was using the following password for her computer:
MickeyMinniePlutoHueyLouieDeweyDonaldGoofy
When the auditor asked why she had such a big password, she said, “Hellllooooooooo! The tech support guy said that it had to be at least eight characters long.”

During a recent password audit, it was found that one of the denser employees was using the following password for his computer:

VaderLukeLeiaHanYodaBobaWinduJabba

When the auditor asked why he had such a big password, the employee answered, “Dude! The IT guy said that it had to be at least eight characters long.”

Ba-da-dump! :)

    A little secure system would say “Nope. No special characters are used.”
