Over the last few months, I’ve seen a password strength meter on almost every signup form I’ve encountered. Password strength meters are on fire. Here’s a question: does a meter actually help people secure their accounts?

It’s less important than other areas of web security, a short sample of which include: Preventing online cracking with throttling or CAPTCHAs.Preventing offline cracking by selecting a suitably slow hash function with user-unique salts.Securing said password hashes. With that disclaimer — yes. These are only the really easy-to-guess passwords. Strength is best measured as entropy, in bits: it’s the number of times a space of possible passwords can be cut in half. This brute-force analysis is accurate for people who choose random sequences of letters, numbers and symbols.

As a result, simplistic strength estimation gives bad advice. The table below compares zxcvbn to other meters. A few notes: I took these screenshots on April 3rd, 2012.

The NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is home to the United States’ largest organization of combined scientists, engineers and technologists that build spacecraft, instruments and new technology to study the Earth, the sun, our solar system, and the universe.

They are also home to some of the most amazing images, visualizations and videos NASA has to offer! Please do yourself a favour and check out their incredible Flickr page which has thousands of images with wonderfully detailed descriptions. Below is a collection of 15 mind-blowing featured images from NASA. Enjoy! 1. Huge Eruptive Prominence Seen on Sun The STEREO (Ahead) spacecraft caught this spectacular eruptive prominence in extreme UV light as it blasted away from the Sun (Apr. 12-13, 2010). 2.

Virtual Router - Wifi Hot Spot for Windows 7 / 2008 R2. Project DescriptionThe original, open source Wifi Hotspot for Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012! Donate to the Project View Frequently Asked Questions | Share on Twitter! What is Virtual Router? Virtual Router is a free, open source software based router for PCs running Windows 8, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

Using Virtual Router, users can wirelessly share any internet connection (Wifi, LAN, Cable Modem, Dial-up, Cellular, etc.) with any Wifi device (Laptop, Smart Phone, iPod Touch, iPhone, Android Phone, Zune, Netbook, wireless printer, etc.) These devices connect to Virtual Router just like any other access point, and the connection is completely secured using WPA2 (the most secure wireless encryption.) Where can Virtual Router be used? Anywhere you are! No Advertising, No Hassle Unlike similar applications, Virtual Router is not only completely Free, but will not annoy you with any advertisements.
