NIST guidelines
In June 2017, the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) issued a new revision of their digital authentication guidelines, NIST SP 800-63B-3, stating that:[13]:5.1.1.2
- Passwords must be at least 8 characters in length if chosen by the subscriber.
- Password verifier systems should permit subscriber-chosen passwords at least 64 characters in length.
- All printing ASCII characters as well as the space character should be acceptable in passwords. Acceptance of Unicode characters is also permitted.
- Verifiers may replace multiple consecutive space characters with a single space character prior to verification, provided that the result is at least 8 characters in length, but truncation of the password shall not be performed.
- Verifiers should not impose other composition rules (e.g., requiring mixtures of different character types or prohibiting consecutively repeated characters) for passwords.
- Verifiers should not require passwords to be changed arbitrarily (e.g., periodically). However, verifiers shall force a change if there is evidence of compromise of the password.
- Verifiers shall not permit the subscriber to store a “hint” that is accessible to an unauthenticated claimant, and verifiers shall not prompt subscribers to use specific types of information (e.g., “What was the name of your first pet?”) when choosing passwords.
- When processing requests to establish or change passwords, verifiers shall compare the prospective passwords against a list that contains values known to be commonly-used, expected, or compromised. The list may include, but is not limited to:
- Passwords obtained from previous breach corpuses, e.g. Online Breach Databases[14], Breached Collections[15]
- Dictionary words
- Passwords consisting of repetitive or sequential characters (e.g. ‘aaaaaa’, ‘1234abcd’)
- Context-specific words, such as the name of the service, the username, and derivatives thereof
If the chosen password is found in the list, the verifier shall advise the subscriber that they need to select a different password and provide the reason for rejection.
- Verifiers should offer guidance to the subscriber, such as a password-strength meter, to assist the user in choosing a strong password. This is particularly important following the rejection of a password on the above list as it discourages trivial modification of blacklisted (and likely very weak) passwords.
- Verifiers shall implement a rate-limiting mechanism that effectively limits the number of failed authentication attempts that can be made on the subscriber’s account.
- Verifiers shall store passwords in a form that is resistant to offline attacks. Passwords shall be salted and hashed using a suitable one-way key derivation function. Key derivation functions take a password, a salt, and a cost factor as inputs then generate a password hash. Their purpose is to make each password guessing trial by an attacker who has obtained a password hash file expensive and therefore the cost of a guessing attack high or prohibitive.
NIST included a rationale for the new guidelines in its Appendix A.

Want
to maintain your computer yourself?
Here is the least you should do Each Month,
alternatively, you can hire some one like me to help you
with this as there is much more than can be
done to speed and protect your computer from not working
and your data from being destroyed.
In the Administrator account do these things:
Back
to top
Do it in this ORDER:
1) Update Windows, click start, all programs, Microsoft update,
or in run box type: %SystemRoot%\system32\wupdmgr.exe
2) How
to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
How to run Chkdsk from My Computer or from Windows Explorer
- Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check.
- Click Properties, and then click Tools.
- Under Error-checking, click Check
Now.
Note The Check disk options dialog box appears. - Use one of the following procedures:
- To run Chkdsk in read-only mode, click Start.
- To repair errors without scanning the volume for bad sectors, select the Automatically fix file system errors check box, and then click Start.
- MOST OF THE TIME DO NOT CHECK FOR BAD SECTORS AS THIS TAKES A LONG TIME
- To repair errors, locate bad sectors, and recover readable information, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start.
-
The disk check could not be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk. These files can be accessed by restarting Windows. Do you want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time you restart the computer?Click Yes to schedule the disk check, and then restart your computer to start the disk check.
3) Run CCleaner I prefer to configure so that it does not delete my history, etc.
4) Run Auslogics
Disk Defrag, I prefer to configure so that moving system
files to the front, etc.
5) Run
Full Virus Scan, with updated virus scanner, with POST NEW ONE SOON, or yours.
6) Finally, Update
and run SpyBot to Check and Protect from having Spyware
If you want to check for Malware:
7) Run Malwarebytes
Anti-Malware
8) Run MRT.exe,
to run this tool, click start, type into the run box, "mrt.exe" no
quotes.

Please check the settings before using the first time.
I prefer to configure so that it does not delete my history, etc.
RE: 1) DO NOT USE Auslogics Disk Defrag Pro, very bad program.
PerfectDisk Pro is best if Auslogics'
get stuck moving files
when your hard disk in mostly full.
PerfectDisk
Pro Not free but worth the $29 dollars.
easy to use FREE 30 day trial that is fully functional.
Use Smart placement on the main drive
on all drives, but make sure
your backup files are not seen as boot files; so run PerfectDisk Pro
before you restart the computer and the prefect is updated.
The first time this program organizes
your drive it take a long time;
and you should only use it with the same setting in the future.
Warning:
Please read the warnings below first before using. Do Not use the Boot Time Defragmenters until they fix it.
If you use this new program and do a Boot Time Defragmenters of the
system file You will get a Blue Screen on restart because the system
files like the Paging file get relocated. You will need to restart
with the Last Know Good Configuration to get your system to see
the system page file.

- Step 2: Identify the Registrar. Visit the registry's (VeriSign's) Websites. Once there, I find the link (at the bottom of the home page) labeled "WHOIS," which allows me to conduct a search for <google.com> using VeriSign's whois tool, which tells me that the registrar for this domain name is MarkMonitor. The result also includes the URL for the registrar.
- Step 3: Conduct Whois Search at Registar. Go to the registrar's (MarkMonitor's) website. That website contains its own whois search form, where I enter "google.com" and learn that the registrant of this domain name is Google LLC and that it was created on September 15, 1997

Considering Windows 8 Upgrade? Don’t:
Rich Jaroslovsky
By Rich Jaroslovsky - Nov 7, 2012 1:00 PM PT Bloomberg Opinion
I’ve made a lot of computer blunders over the years. The biggest was
taking a perfectly well- functioning Sony (6758) Vaio and upgrading
it from Windows XP to Windows Vista, which left it so crash-prone as
to be all but useless.
So please believe me when I offer this word of advice on installing Microsoft’s shiny new Windows 8 operating system:
Don’t.
Windows 8 is far from the disaster Vista was. But unless you have a very recent personal computer with a touch screen, there are few benefits -- and some significant drawbacks in terms of learning curve and usability -- to upgrading from Windows 7.

Server Bundle v.2.0 FREE (run
a web server on a windows machine)
This is needed to run Wordpress on your own machine,
and this is not for non professionals.
----------------------------------------
Do this only if you have already installed the Apache Server Bundle above or
have a web host with those resources available. Most likely your web host
would install all this software for you. This would only be for professionals
building a Wordpress installation on their own machine, etc.
The latest stable release of WordPress (Version 3.4.2) is available in two formats from the links to your right.
If you have no idea what
to do with this download, we recommend signing up with one of our
web hosting partners that offers a one-click install of WordPress
or getting a free account on WordPress.com.
What’s Next?
With our famous 5-minute installation,
setting up WordPress for the first time is simple. We’ve created a
handy guide to see you through the installation process. If you're
upgrading your existing installation, we've got a guide for that, too.
And should you run into any trouble along the way, our support forums
are a great resource, where seasoned WordPress experts volunteer their
time to help you get the most out of your blog.

Open Source (#1):
What is
Eclipse and the Eclipse Foundation?
Eclipse is a community for individuals and organizations who wish to collaborate on commercially-friendly open source software. Its projects are focused on building an open development platform comprised of extensible frameworks, tools and run-times for building, deploying and managing software across the life-cycle. The Eclipse Foundation is a not-for-profit, member supported corporation that hosts the Eclipse projects and helps cultivate both an open source community and an ecosystem of complementary products and services.
The Eclipse Project was originally created by IBM in November 2001 and supported by a consortium of software vendors. The Eclipse Foundation was created in January 2004 as an independent not-for-profit corporation to act as the steward of the Eclipse community. The independent not-for-profit corporation was created to allow a vendor neutral and open, transparent community to be established around Eclipse. Today, the Eclipse community consists of individuals and organizations from a cross section of the software industry.
The Eclipse Foundation is funded by annual dues from our members and governed by a Board of Directors. Strategic Developers and Strategic Consumers hold seats on this Board, as do representatives elected by Add-in Providers and Open Source committees. The Foundation employs a full-time professional staff to provide services to the community but does not employ the open source developers, called committers, which actually work on the Eclipse projects. Eclipse committers are typically employed by organizations or are independent developers that volunteer their time to work on an open source project.
In general, the Eclipse Foundation provides four services
to the Eclipse community: 1) IT
Infrastructure, 2) IP
Management,3) Development
Process, and 4) Ecosystem
Development. Full-time staff are associated with each of these
areas and work with the greater Eclipse community to assist in meeting
the needs of the stakeholders.

IT Infrastructure
The Eclipse Foundation manages the IT infrastructure for the Eclipse open source community, including Git code repositories, Bugzilla databases, development oriented mailing lists and forums, download site and web site. The infrastructure is designed to provide reliable and scalable service for the committers developing the Eclipse technology and the consumers who use the technology.
Intellectual Property (IP) Management
An important aspect of Eclipse is the focus on enabling the use of open source technology in commercial software products and services. We consciously promote and encourage software vendors to use Eclipse technology for building their commercial software products and services. This is made possible by the fact that all Eclipse projects are licensed under the Eclipse Public License (EPL), a commercial friendly OSI approved licensed.

Data erasure I just took my hard drive to a hardware guy and he erased for free
DO NOT USE THIS SECTION UNLESS YOU ARE VERY SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR ARE DOING
THIS SECTION GENERALLY ERASES YOUR HARD DRIVE SO THAT THE DATA CAN NEVER BE RECOVERED!
Normally when you erase a file in MS Windows and empty it from the Recycling Bin,
that only Marks the file as deleted in the Master file table,
the
file is not really deleted at all.
For simple, non secure and fast just do a Full Format of the drive; NOT a quick format.
What does Full formatting my hard disk do?
Reformatting refers to formatting a
hard disk or partition that already has been formatted or that contains
data on it. A FULL format of a disk deletes all of the data on the
disk.

What's a quick format? This only erases the MFT (master file table) not the data of the files.
Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table on a hard disk but does not fully overwrite or erase the disk. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases any existing data on the hard disk.
