As I mentioned earlier, the method that I presented in this article is just a funny thing that I discovered. I don’t encourage you to use it and if you want to give it a try you are at your own risk. To secure your account, you should use password generators and 2FA, where it is possible. We’ve seen that a password like DMaj7|Fsus2!G#9 would take 3261 centuries to be broken by a brute force attack. However, this estimation was valid before this article was published. By the moment you read this, there is a chance that someone integrated my method in a password cracking tool like John the Ripper. If this is the case, the password can be broken in a much less time, maybe minutes.
It is recommended to generate and manage your passwords using a password manager. There are many options out there and they take care of a lot of aspects of password security that are not covered in this article. So, feel free to choose from 1Password, bitwarden, keeper and many more.
