Use 12-Character Passwords Now
In the security category, users might want to take note and upgrade their passwords. Researchers are cracking measly character codes.
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology used a cluster of graphics cards and brute force attacks to penetrate an eight-character long password string, in just two hours.
But when their method went up against a 12-character password, it fell flat. Actually it will take 17,134 years to crack it. 11-character passwords take 180 years to crack.
The report offers users to come up with complex structure possibly a sentence with numbers and symbols but don't use logical English words because they can be cracked with dictionary hacking programs.
