In combination with forced changes, it leads to…

Password1

Password2

Password3

Etc



The one I see that stays updatable is:

PasswordFebruary2024!

Where month and year update on the date of forced password change.


Oh, that's a good one. <runs off to update corporate logins>

I'm closing in on password100... It is the only sane thing to do, a good password is hard to memorize. (passphrases are must better, but hard to type correctly first thing in the morning and take too long when I need to type my password a dozen times a day)


Is that worse than

Password1

Password1

Password1

Etc?
