The fourth result on Google.com links to my blog. Though it doesn’t link to some secret, mega hacking tip but to a review of PassPack, an online password manager. Well, that is certainly not what he - I doubt it was a female - was looking for. By the way, the guy did not use Google.com but the results from his local Google domain are the same anyway.

Yes, hackers and crackers are attracted to us. But we knew that when building the program and planned accordingly. The site is very heavily tested. The weakest point in the entire system is the user - if a user chooses a "guessable" User ID, Pass and Packing Key, then the most safe system in the world won't keep a cracker out. As Carsten pointed out, we are planning on implementing an inline tool to warn users if their login data is "strong" or not. I wrote a few articles on the PassPack blog that might interest you: "How it works" Category covers strong passwords, who we are, etc. http://passpack.wordpress.com/tag/how-it-works/ New Features for the next release: http://passpack.wordpress.com/2007/01/10/would-you-like-some-fries-with-that-sir/ Thanks for your interest! @marcel

Though AES is very strong encryption and shouldn't be cracked too soon. That’s possible, of course. Though AES is very strong encryption and shouldn’t be cracked too soon.
