Linux VPS : Weak Password Hunt!
- Saturday, 2nd August, 2014
- 20:37pm
Hello,
We are currently deploying an algorythm to detect weak passwords which is creating a significant vulnerability for your VPS.
If your password is considered as too weak (included in most famous brute force dictionnary or not including a complex string) it will be changed automatically to a more secured one and we will email the concerned VPS.
Over the last few months, we had a couple of hacked VPS which caused a serious inconvenience for their users.
We are taking our responsabilities and we have decided to step in the security of your linux VPS.
We sincerely hope that this policy will be welcome.
Sincerely yours,
Vincent Royant
