Security News > 2023 > August > S3 Ep147: What if you type in your password during a meeting?
DUCK. So we did get the Mark I, and I guess it was the last mainstream digital computer that had a driveshaft, Doug, operated by an electrical motor.
DUCK. I think they intended that as a slightly humorous note, but they did note that previous research, not their own, has discovered that touch-typers tend to be much more regular about the way that they type.
Apparently touch-typing makes you much more of a moving target, if you like, as well as helping you type much faster, Doug.
My thinking on that is, Doug, that maybe those really annoying, pesky password complexity rules have some purpose after all, albeit not the one that we first thought.
DUCK. Obviously, for a sound-sniffing password phisher, knowing your 2FA code this time isn't going to help them next time.
What would be intriguing, Doug, is if the "Know your customer" data showed that it was actually your Bitcoin was the one that got cashed out for gold and buried.
