How to create and store passwords in plain sight, very strong and very long, without remembering them

Greetings readers!





My name is Andreas , for a long time I have been leading a video blog (SunAndreas) on the topics of civil information security, and today I decided to share in a text version with all the useful ideas that can be useful even for people far from IT. Tell the older generation about this, because they will be able to store passwords quite safely, including at work, without using additional programs, password managers.





In my way, you can create very complex and hard-to-remember passwords, which you will not need to keep in your head. And besides, you can store as many passwords as you like from any number of services, accounts in this way. The form of storage I propose can be implemented both digitally and in real form, for example, on paper, or it is better to combine for reliability: store both virtually and on paper.





Method 1





In order to store passwords directly on your desk next to your computer or on the desktop of the operating system in electronic form, you need to make a table from random, and if speaking with scientific precision, from pseudo-random letters, numbers and various symbols.
