Why should I use a random passphrase?

We've been trained to use hard-to-remember passwords that are easy for computers to guess. Basically, we're rubbish at creating secure passwords

You can have a skim through our KB article on exactly why that is here

Tech:

The algorithm assumes 10,000 guesses per second, which is consistent with passwords hashed using bcrypt, scrypt or PBKDF2. If a database contains passwords hashed with MD5 or SHA-256/512, then no amount of password security is really going to help.
