  1. Re:PassGorithm - One Algorithm, infinite passwords on Best Tool For Remembering Passwords? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So as soon as anybody gets a single one of your passwords, they now get the whole kit-n-kabootle.

    well look at one of the examples above... g33e_w00t ..... you will actually need the algorithm to decrypt anything else. It's encryption. You need a decription key

  2. PassGorithm - One Algorithm, infinite passwords on Best Tool For Remembering Passwords? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I invented this method and has worked for me perfectly since then. What I did was to develop an algorithm by which I can reconstruct my passwords based on the website or account. For example: 1) Take the first letter on the website name eg : slashdot = 's' 2) Count letters in the website name: eg : slashdot = '6' 3) Count the vowels eg : slashdot = '2' 4) Take the last letter eg : slashdot = 't' 5) Add and underscore and a keyword in common to the end of the 4 previous characters eg : 's62t_w00t' Here's another example with google.com 1) 'g' 2) '3' 3) '3' 4) 'e' 5) 'g33e_w00t' Be creative with the rules... like for example, if its a bank account, make all letters UPPERCASE. Hope this helps. Note: the above example is not my PassGorithm :D
