Weak passwords are a big flaw in computer security due to a lack of "entropy"
2015-04-26 18:12:34 +00:00
or randomness. For example, how many times have you used the name of a pet or relative or street
2015-04-26 00:41:26 +00:00
in a password, or perhaps the number "1". Not very random, is it? :-)
2015-04-26 18:12:34 +00:00
Worse still, if
passwords are reused between services, < a href = "http://www.businessinsider.com/biggest-password-mistake-2014-8"

Fact is, humans are terrible at remembering random combiations of letters and
2015-04-26 23:15:00 +00:00
numbers, but we are great at remembering phrases of words. That's where Diceware comes in.

This Diceware web app is based on the proposal at < a href = "http://world.std.com/~reinhold/diceware.html" > http://world.std.com/~reinhold/diceware.html< / a >
2015-04-26 00:41:26 +00:00
wherein virtual dice are roled 5 times, and the 5 digit number used against a lookup table of words.
4 dice rolls gives you 4 random words which are easy for a human being to remember, yet have
a high amount of entropy which makes them hard to crack.

< h3 > FAQ: Why not use LastPass or a similar product?< / h3 >
2015-05-01 03:26:04 +00:00
By all means, feel free to do so. LastPass is an excellent product and I highly recommend it. That said, Diceware
is alternative if you want to have passwords that are easier to remember (not necessarily always the case with LastPass-generated passwords).

< h3 > FAQ: Are these dice rolls cryptographically secure?< / h3 >
2015-04-28 00:48:57 +00:00
Yes, insofar as we're using the getRandomValues() function in Javascript, and you trust that your
browser and computer have not been compromised or otherwise tampered with. Keep in mind that a not-so-theoretical attack
would be for an attacker to compromise the random number generator on your computer so that
anything that is encrypted (or passkeys generated) would be suspectible to less intense cryptoanalysis.
2015-04-27 23:12:37 +00:00
< h3 > FAQ: Is the source available?< / h3 >
Yep! You can grab a copy at < a href = "https://github.com/dmuth/diceware" > https://github.com/dmuth/diceware< / a >

2015-05-01 03:33:27 +00:00
In fact, if you are nervous about generating a password on a website (even though the password is actually
generated by Javascript in your browser), I would encourage you to download the source and run it locally.
