In this video we take a look at the top 200 most commonly used passwords and show just how easy they are to crack. Then I got into tips and tricks for creating passwords that will take centuries to brute force and what password manager you should be using. Finally I demo John-The-Ripper tool against a user account on my system to show you how Brute Force attacks work in real life.
