  Especially when getting it wrong a third time means that you have to do the walk of shame to the IT help desk.

    or restart and try again (this often works, idk why)

      It locks both your smartcard and your user account, there is no way around that.

    I had a director that just couldn’t do it. Took 47 tries for him to login. Didn’t matter what computer they used. I checked to make sure there wasn’t any outside source locking them out. They just weren’t able to do it.

      New security measure: if the director logs in using 46 or fewer attempts, their account gets locked.

  Just use bitwarden

    Just to be clear: there is no reason anybody should be typing a password in 2025, other than maybe their master password for a keyvault. Also, 14 characters is not secure*. It needs to be at least 16, and that’s if you generate it randomly.

    Four randomly selected words, XKCD style is also good

    • according to Jeremi M Gosney, yer best source for password cracking and defense

      Aren’t dictionary bruteforcing really efficient ?

    Exactly. I use KeepassXC, but Bitwarden is also good.
