'Passphrases' Are The New Passwords

                Move over passwords!  Long passphrases are emerging as a better alternative for digital security than complex codes made of letters, numbers and special keystrokes. No longer must passwords be changed so often, or include an incomprehensible string of special characters. The new direction champions less complexity in favour of length. To a computer, poetry or simple sentences can be just as hard crack. People are less likely to forget them.
