When you select the password field, Password Generator suggests a strong password in a drop-down menu. When you open a web page that contains a sign-up form or a change password field, Microsoft Edge activates Password Generator. Additionally, the generated password is saved automatically in the browser and filled across all your signed-in devices so you don’t have to remember it. Use it to automatically generate a strong, unique password suggestion each time you need one. Password Generator in Microsoft Edge is a game-changer. However, this is a dangerous practice because even one compromised password can make you vulnerable on multiple websites.
Dependence on memory and force of habit makes people use simple passwords and repeat them across accounts. But in reality, very few people can follow this guidance.
Then in your New-Mailbox or New-ADUser command use '-Password $Password'Įxample output: Sherpy17.Gorpy Glermy.64Glerp Nerpy26.Passwords best practices recommend using a strong and unique password for each of your online accounts. Use $PasswordRaw as the plain text variable to send in the email. $Password = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $PasswordRaw -AsPlainText -Force $Number = Get-Random -minimum 10 -maximum 99 Not nearly as robust/random as the sites mentioned below, but much easier to implement into a deployment script. It uses nonsense but easy to remember words, and has number and punctuation in the middle to satisfy AD complex password restrictions. I wrote a PowerShell script a while back that creates users, adds them to distribution lists, sets their password, blah blah blah. Once they understood why they are required to have a strong password and know what a strong password is, the chances are higher they actually take care of their passwords. I usually show them the password list generated from the Stratfor user data base incident. Third thing I show them, is how hashes and password crackers (dictionary attacks, rainbow tables) work. Another thing is, they have to understand how social engineering works and that the names of their kittens are a no go. They usually argue somewhat like "I am not important, they might attack our CEO or research team, but I am just an office clerk.". They often don't understand that their account can be used to attack more important accounts/computers. When doing trainings/awareness campaign, you have to explain them why they have to choose strong passwords. Show them some examples and it usually works pretty well. They can also create own sentences like: My Great Uncle was born in 1932 in Foobar.

I use apg (Advanced Password Generator) on NetBSD.īesides that, I advise my Users to use the following algorithm: FIPS PUB 181 describes and algorithm for this, which has been implemented in different programmes.
