It's still not in a freaking list that they can run a programmatic attack against. People that give this answer sound like a f****** broken record I swear.
Secops has been against this method of protection for many years now, I’d say you’re the outdated one here
Years ago phishing and 2fa breaches werent as pervasive. Since we can't all go to pass key right now, nobody's doing a damn thing about the phishing campaigns. Secops current method of protection is to pay companies that scan the dark web by the lists and offer up if your password's been owned for a fee.
That's a pretty s***** tactic to try to protect your users.
We're on the internet, you can say shit.
If your user is just using johnsmithfall2022 as their password and they update the season and year every time, it's pretty easy for hackers to identify that pattern and correct it. This is not the solution and it actively makes life worse for everyone involved.
Password crackers says you're wrong
No never minded people that think that all passwords are being cracked tell me I'm wrong. Lists emails and passwords grabbed from fishing attacks tell me the people that are too lazy to change their passwords and once in awhile don't deserve the security.
I'm a native English speaker. I can't understand your comment. I sense that you have a useful perspective, could you rephrase it so it's understandable?
