Will Your Password Need A Password?

Will Your Password Need A Password? 06/01/2004 02:43 AM
If you hadn't realized it already, simple username/password combos are a pretty weak form of security - yet they're pretty much all we have for many important online systems that store our most vital information. While there are other solutions out there, many companies (especially in the US) have been incredibly slow in adopting "two-factor authentication" systems that require a password plus something else - such as a onetime code generated by a device you have to have with you (or built into your computer). The idea, then, is that if your password is revealed, no one else has the device, so it's useless. If they find the device, they don't have your password, so it's useless. However, so far, many users don't value this additional security very much - and the devices still aren't all that cheap. Plus, many companies are worried that users will react negatively to such systems as it may slow down the user experience - causing them to look for other (albeit less secure) alternatives. Then, of course, there's the worry that people will start using such systems that aren't compatible with each other, so you'll need separate devices for every account - which would be much worse than before. Others, such as those in the fingerprint scanning business think a biometric approach makes much more sense - but that leads to all sorts of other questions and issues. Still, as there are more and more cases of fraud and identity theft due to so much weak security, it seems increasingly likely that companies will be forced to adopt more secure methods.

Your Password For A Chocolate Bar, A

Your Password For A Chocolate Bar, A
Pen, Or Nothing At All 04/19/2004 07:01 PM
Last year we pointed to a study saying that people would give you their password in exchange for a cheap ballpoint pen, and this year the prize has changed, but the result is the same. A new study shows that all it takes is a chocolate bar and plenty of people will cough up their passwords. Of course, what they don't realize is that whoever was giving out the chocolate bars was the real sucker. A study last month showed that people will cough up all sorts of info if you just ask for it, without giving anything in return.

Password Recycling

Password Recycling 07/20/2004 07:39 AM

Why registration-sites suck: Boing Boing links to a story on Wired about registration at news sites. The article is okay, but Boing Boing's comments ring very, very true:

The point that everyone seems to miss is that no one can possibly keep track of a thousand passwords for a thousand websites, which means that these sites undoubtably contain recycled passwords [...]

The more you recycle a password, the higher the likelihood that you will use it in a sensitive context — a bank site, a message board, an IM client, an auction site — where someone might impersonate you or even commit identity theft crimes against you.

Okay, raise your hands, how many of you have a "standard" password that you use all over the place? Everyone does it. Show me someone that uses a different password for every registration or account and I'll show you a liar.

I know a friend that has a group of passwords that he uses based on context — one password for throwaway Web site registration, one for email accounts, one for IM, one for sensitive stuff like banking, etc.

What if someone at one of these services decides to take your password and see where else it might work? Yes, I know the passwords should be hashed when stored in their database, but there's no guarantee that they're going to do that.

How may of you have a password stored in some service or Web site that you've long-since forgotten about that would also work in, say, your bank's Web site?
