Ulta High Security Password Generator

Steve Gibson of the Security Now! podcast has created an Ultra High Security Password Generator. For those of you who are very paranoid about making sure no one hacks into your wireless connection, this page is for you. No more weak wireless passphrases.

The cool part? The page is a SSL page, so it is securely transmitted over the Internet. It is marked as expired in 1999, so no ISP will cache it, and each key is only displayed once without ever being reused again.

Basically the passphrases generated are uncrackable or as close as it gets to that.

Recall of Sony CD's

Sony has announced it will recall 18 CD’s that have its rootkit technology. Details will be released soon.

About time. Now how about an uninstall program that doesn’t phone home and that actually restores a computer back to its former state?

I hope all forms of DRM get a serious revaluation after this episode. Content is not meant to have restrictions.

Sony should also post a press release on their site and needs to put a noticeable notice on the front of its website. I just checked their site and neither has happened yet.
