Security

Do you keep your passwords in a document file on your computer?

First of all if you answered that question as yes then you need to smack yourself with a baseball bat. If you have them in an encrypted file don’t tell me it’s the password protection on a word document! Better yet are you carrying your passwords on a piece of paper in your wallet.

I bet about 50% of you can say yes to those answers. I also bet that about 90% of you use the same password across multiple accounts. How many or you actually use the same password for your bank account that you use for your paypal account..

Imagine you have all of that data in a word document and you try to open it one night and find that it is already opened by someone else. Think it can’t happen to you read this.

Ohhh an guess what, you Mac users should probably read this also! [Fortune.com]

    My favorite program to store passwords is Any Password (http://www.anypassword.com/). Also, for war driving your neighborhood I saw a cool device at http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/itemdetails.asp?dpNo=1238908&Sku=C277-1000. It is a little pricey for me, but if I traveled, I would get one no question. Also, I’m sure everyone reading this knows Word docs and the like can be cracked easily. I would never depend on a none encryption program for security.
