How the Bible and YouTube are fueling the next frontier of password cracking

Fair enough, but not that new.

In an old corporate penetration testing exercise about 5 years ago, I loaded a copy of the bible into John the Ripper to crack the password of a religious group.

A common password was something like "Jeremiah 29:11". I wouldn't have guessed that without this.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Powerful words.
