A password manager combined with a random password generator would be convenient and accessible, and provide an easy path to improved security. Challenge questions cost almost nothing and find low resistance from users.Another thing to remember is that using images instead of text may violate some accessibility standards; remembering an image is not easier for a blind person.Long story short? different case, spelling, token digit in a different position.Of course both of these mean the CR has access to the cleartext secret question.This reminds me of some other great security snafus:- "Field must be at least 6 characters long".

They did the usual ask for a password and a memoranble word, and I assumed that like most of these systems it would just be used for retrieving my password.However, the 'memorable' word had to contain letters and numbers. "By the way, did it ever appear to you how sexist that 'mother's maiden name' question is?

It's a great idea from a customer service perspective -- a user is less likely to forget his first pet's name than some random password -- but terrible for security. "What's your favorite color?"

There's an additional, constant string that gets added to each of these passwords, all in the same place. If someone knows anything about you, they can answer an easy question and reset your password. In this case the phone monkeys staffing the help lines, who are _never_ adequately briefed on security.For example, I have an account with vodafone. A better way might be to have the company tell you the answer, and then you would reply with the question. Thankfully none of my answers were terrible, but still awkward.

In this visionary work, New York Times bestselling author John Assaraf and business guru Murray Smith reinvent the business book for the twenty-first century. The problem is that this could still be easy to brute force, but depending on how many abstract questions you have, this determine how hard of a function it is to answer.But extension, if you were to have the user solve a different maze puzzle (think something like a procedural generated rogue like) then not only would they have to guess the right route, they would have to only guess it the first time as the program automatically self-destructs.Hoping things to be perfectly secure gets kind of ridiculous.It's sad that this post is still entirely relevant 14 years after it was written...I've just had the experience of verbally answering challenge questions to a human, over the phone, in my office.
