The problem I am facing is <BR>that I can't find any devices suitable for password storage. <BR><BR>What did I store on my PDA? <BR><BR>Financial passwords. (Liability rests on me to keep it secure and the company <BR>disclaims all liability for stolen passwords: of course) <BR><BR>System passwords. (My job if these are stolen.) <BR><BR>However, now all PDA's have wifi, bluetooth, USB ports, and Irfd and I <BR>evaluate these devices on what they are capable of, not what the software allows <BR>for (Paris Hilton having all of her phone numbers stolen). So, when I saw that <BR>the pocket PC came with Internet Explorer I overflowed my joy buffer. Storing <BR>my passwords on a device that is capable of silently sending out information <BR>without any detection (and runs IE) isn't that great. <BR><BR>All of my passwords are garblygook that I have a hard time remembering for <BR>example: C:j2Tc3K9#@ would be a sample password. And I use the same method for <BR>those questions: Where were you born? "I was born in (c1)32CSF}" <BR><BR>The only thing I can think of is to store my passwords in a pocket PC in <BR>"PasswordSafe: http://www.schneier.com/passsafe.html" with an additional <BR>mnemonic password encoding. <BR><BR>So that C:j2Tc3K9#@ would be stuck with the following rules: <BR><BR>Every 3rd character is incremented by its ordinal value by one. <BR><BR>C:j2Tc3K9#@ would be C:i2Td3K0#@ <BR><BR>Now, if you have read this far, I'm sure most of you think I need to be sent to <BR>the funny farm. But what hacks have I seen/heard about in the last 3 months? <BR><BR>1. IE: all password can be stolen <BR>2. Adobe: buffer overflow execute allows for arbitrary code run. <BR>3. DNS: hack. <BR>4. That neat trick on how to extract memory on a computer after it has been <BR>turned off. (That was really cool). <BR><BR>And financial companies say push the liability for stolen passwords on to the <BR>user. <BR><BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________ <BR>SanFrancisco-pm mailing list <BR>SanFrancisco-pm@pm.org <BR>http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/sanfrancisco-pm <BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
