Digital Security (Assignment One)

1. I would say the passwords listed are easy to guess.  They have simple characters such as the alphabet and numbers, the longest one is nine letters long, which could easily be guessed as 123456789.
2. I personally never used any of these passwords because I thought they would be too easily guessed.
3. I do not think adults and seniors would use passwords such as these because they have no meaning to them and they probably would remember a date or name that is important to them.  However, if they do use these passwords they should change them into something only they would know and that couldn't be easily guessed.
4. Three extra horrible passwords that were not put on this list were, your name, your phone number or something like your street number.
5. A modern strong password should be about a sentence, as long as possible so it can't be guessed.
