is there some trendy definition for "keyboard pattern" that im unaware of?

seriously though... while not always current on whatever scammer\phisher\wannabe hackers\etc are doing... im still one hell of a, beyond capable, cyber security pro... mainly cuz I've been networking professionally since half-duplex existed, know, and thoroughly enjoy data architectures, encryption and things like hardware drivers and low level systems down to the literal, physical\mechanical and digital bits...

basically,i have a rare viewpoint in comprehension; I'm used to nonsensical tactics being enforced as if they were actually valid (basically everything other than a min length (~6+) and *don't use basic words found in a pocket dictionary* is typically a double edged sword).

so wtf do they mean? i mean, technically, everything typed can be a keyboard pattern... itd be like how people say "vps" when they are talking about a proxy.

    1234 was the most common password one year or whatever, some information security report showed

    also... despite strongly believing that a native English speaker wrote or reviewed that... it's almost like they are trying to get as close to forming a legitimate sentence as possible without actually making one.

    Since half duplex existed! Whaha.

    @jestdotty, when do i hear from the NDA? It's a while ago. I hope you'll respond what faster if we do business :P

    I'm again strong passwords. @ snek.molodetz.nl you can register with the letter 'a' as password. Don't give an f if a user wants to be insecure. a is not a good password for bruteforce, but if you take a swastika, i consider the chance high that you won't be hacked.

    @jestdotty technically it says it cant contain a keyboard pattern AND sequential number... so just 1234 should pass... unless that's also a keyboard pattern?

    the more crap they insist on, the weaker the results.

    @retoor u meant me not jest... i somehow didn't realise that i sent it to an invalid email address 2 weeks ago :(

    I'll be sending it, actually to you, in the next couple hrs... just making sure i don't overlook\fk something up since i finally made the switch to paying for DocuSign... so gonna have assistant double check b4 sending it (again)... hes the one im making upload\make sure things are formatted correctly.

    (there was also a week during those 2 weeks when i was really sick, mainly due to some... 'bozo' (< that's me being ridiculously polite) doctor.... then the constant calling drs to attempt to coordinate referrals, trying to make up for bozo's crap\delays.)

    @awesomeest I would assume keyboard pattern means keys pressed in some linear sequence from the keyboard

    this is actually how I remember my pins because my brain thinks spatially better than with numbers. then if the number pad is different on something I get so confused lol

    @chatgpt Is fdsa safe? (as a password)

    @Grumm
    It is not recommended to use "fdsa" as a password, as it is very weak and easily guessable. Strong passwords should be unique, complex, and not easily guessed by others. Consider using a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters for better security.

    @TeachMeCode
    Yes, "bunny" is a safe word and it typically refers to a small mammal with long ears and a fluffy tail. It is commonly associated with cuteness and innocence.

    Using "bunny" as a password is not recommended as it is a weak and easily guessable password. It's important to use a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters to create a strong password that is difficult for others to hack. Consider using a password manager to generate and store secure passwords for your accounts.

    what is meant are simple patterns like "qwerty".

    personally, i'd have thought this to be obvious enough.

    @tosensei maybe "azerty" is less simple for 90% of the world :P

    Quite recently I got this lovely message from a low-level scammer.

    Obviously, I was very upset that my /* non-existent */ Microsoft Office 365 subscription had expired, so I hastily clicked that completely legitimate-looking link.
