Chris Talks About Passwords

[@chimp4me]

1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Wow! That's amazing its the same combination I have on my luggage!

[@7722tomtom7722]

I love this series so much. Even though it varies dramatically in subject matter (from the meaning of life to butt sweat), I still get a great sense of perspective from them.

[@EdWittenable]

Perspective, yes. Help in dealing with fart spray, not so much. :D

[@rockspoon6528]

Store them on your computer in a text file, but keep it on an encrypted section on an encrypted drive

[@linkinl1]

You just exposed the dog to the internet, that means YOU WERE THE HACKER ALL ALONG :OOOOO

[@MattisProbably]

The best password is a long password. A program that tries different combinations of letters, signs and numbers doesn't care about the structure of your password. Given enough time it WILL crack it. My onlinebanking password is actually just a 5 digit code. Just 5 numbers, that's it... That's a ludicrously unsafe way to protect an account and I can't change it! My bank won't allow anything else, it HAS to be 5 digits long and it HAS to be numbers only. So now a hacker knows two things: It's 5 signs long and it only contains the numbers from 0 to 9. The result? If a professional tries to hack it my money is gone in ten minutes.

[@SlamACowGameing]

Um... What bank do you go to? Just a question....

[@MattisProbably]

Slam-A-Cow The most popular bank here in Germany called Sparkasse :P

[@SlamACowGameing]

YES!!! TIME TO HAXZ ALL THE BANKZ!!!

[@Hadgerz]

Does the bank at least send you an SMS or email confirmation whenever a sum of money is withdrawn? I'd be checking that shit daily...or finding a new bank.

[@MattisProbably]

***** My point exactly. On the other hand, the account is useless without my card. I have TAN generator that gives me codes to authorize actions of the account. But I have no idea how secure that system really is and an attacker could still *access* my account pretty easily. They could figure out what I spend my money on, how much I earn, my adress is in there... And today information like that is kind of worth more than money in itself...

[@robthehitmanrude]

steal pictures of my dog pooping? Oh SSSSHHHHIITTTTT...

[@ShockwavesFTW]

I thought I was the only one that used the word "password" in most of my passwords... Are there more people like me? Am I not as original and clever as I thought? Am I living a lie? *Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.......*

[@flyacow]

Poop is definitely a funny word. Flyacow saying goodnight.

[@Wawagirl17]

I always thought that a lot of people used the same password for everything. This makes that seem not so smart, though, because then if someone figures it out for one account, they've got it for all.

[@MaximumR00]

Not my pooping dog pictures! THOSE ARE PERSONAL!

[@rosabscura]

I think the more important question here is not "how to keep passwords safe?" but "why do you have pictures of your dogs pooping???"

[@EdWittenable]

Doesn't everybody? I thought all the cool kids were doing it. :D

[@rosabscura]

Lol

[@bland9876]

No we moved on to cat poop its all the rage

[@StrikeTeam99]

Love the video, I agree if it's anything sensitive don't put it on a "cloud" service. If the government can get hacked a privately owned cloud service can get hacked.

[@Uyuzefe]

They can hack the services itself but if the content is properly encrypted, it's pretty much unbreakable without sci-fi equipment

[@StrikeTeam99]

Efe Açıkgöz I get what you mean but I would rather be safe then sorry

[@ebwarg]

Aw! Pluto is uncredited :(

[@dunestar29]

Another great video!

[@Tennisers]

I'll remember all this the next time I take pictures of dogs pooping

[@StarCrusher.]

Now I want to hack into FilmCow's accounts

[@quita1569]

Imagine being hacked for 10+. It is to the point where they can watch your screen as you are on the computer.

[@adamsuniverse]

I heard the most secure password is 4 random dictionary words. For some inspiration, KZbin: word disassociation.

[@PublicServiceAnnouncement]

This is true. Every added character to a password causes a guessing program to have to account for about 50 possible characters; 50 probabilities. If your password is short, it might have to account for a character not found in common words, but it doesn't care for such a thing; it only cares about being the correct character in the password. It doesn't take more guesswork for a computer upon using different characters, it takes more time to calculate more probabilities.

[@markhughes5127]

Longer the password = better, yes. But it is EVEN BETTER to also make it complex with a large variety of characters! (example: numbers, and symbols) p4rRr0t$ is harder than p4Rr0ts is harder than pARrots is harder than parrots Not just in terms of readability - but also in terms of variety of characters. Heck throw in some triangles ∆ and stuff. Edit: just to clarify, the triangle thing was a joke ;)

[@Rajonas007]

WHY? WHY YOU HAVE THAT IN YOUR PHONE?!!😨😧

[@theonepoet]

lastpass

[@randihartley1431]

I use passwords that are so simple and stupid that no hacker would even think that someone would use them

[@UnpaidInternJR]

Yes.. We all love a picture of pooping dogs

[@Hadgerz]

A pooping dog a day keeps the JLaw pics at bay.

[@eeebieee3]

Umm I kind do the password thing but with complex numbers lol

[@PogieJoe]

I can't wait for the day that thumb scanners become super common. Much more foulproof!

[@jasonmnosaj]

I like to make my passwords insults. So if anyone does hack my account, I at least get my 2 cents in. Insults are also easy to remember.

[@mudgehannah18]

I'm Amish and there's no electricity

[@Astral_Blitz]

Chris has a Moto X. Hehe

[@michaelbuehler3897]

I agree, take care but realize you will never be 100% secure online.

[@TARINunit9]

I know this has already been said, but your friend is totally screwed. Most password hacks are done by password forcing, and "password14" at 36^10 is pretty mediocre

[@simonnomis123321]

Most Password Hacking bots go through passwords letter by letter trying every combination so wouldn't a ton of the letter z be the best

[@XENOMEXTECHNO]

Character map lol

[@DellerName]

They got their photos leaked because they had weak security answers and/or passwords that were easy to guess to get in to their accounts. It wasn't Apples security that got hacked. :-)

[@Lebontempviendra]

anyone who donated to DHOA can someone tell me whats going on is it being made is it close is it a failed project

[@Zackhasacat]

Chris, I know you used to work at NASA, so tell us, do they really use google Ultron there?

[@Kenzirs]

my password is the middle name of a girl i used to date. its a pretty weird an unique name so its safe assume it should be ok against any kind of guessing or dictionary attacks.

[@Dennisjay9]

When I was in middle school I was the most l33t hacksor. I did the super special move of asking them what their password was then logging in and changing it as fast as I could. This was the early years of KZbin where no one could figure out how to add videos to your profile on sites like myspace and GAIA so Id just offer to do it for them then boom. People are kind of dumb sometimes. There is even a youtube page that calls up major businesses like pizza hut and target on the phone and just simply askes them for customer info and when they ask why he just says "im from the corporate office" and it works 90% of the time.

[@bsaget98]

i hate having soo many passwords. what has this world come to?

[@STANNco]

my precious Dog poop is safe!

[@cedricdoguiles8283]

Who takes pictures of their dog pooping?

[@masterxak]

no the secret is to make it long and use numbers and symbols, but keep it simple use underscores for spaces and $ or 3 for E. like here is an example Thi$_i$_an_3xampl3. since most hackers use a program that rapidly tries several passwords a second, the longer they are the safer they are, also the "special symbols" that websites require does slow it down since the program first tries numbers and letters. but I only use numbers since websites force you to, its all about the symbols and length man.

[@predwarlord]

Does two step verification help at all? Or are there ways round that.

[@manalopen2023]

This would work until someone keylogs you.

[@masterxak]

well nothing would help against keylogs.

[@Vilegorico]

oh no! not my dog pooping! T.T

[@JOEking990]

P@s$w0Rd is hard to hack.

[@matthewsullivan2381]

I have a generic password for sites I don't care about being hacked. The more sensitive ones have variations of much more complicated passwords that are stored securely in my brain. As of yet, people cannot hack into your brain. Hopefully that doesn't happen in our lifetime.

[@idoyt8684]

Can I see your dog pooping again?

[@katekolton7820]

How do you people get here so fast? Fuuuuck I'll never get first!

[@markifi]

this is the first in the series that made me cringe. use a password manager with "trust no one" encryption? also, terrible conclusion.

[@EpicNumberTwo]

Possibly first.

[@TheUndeadPugDelaPug]

2nd
