LUKS passphrase question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello dm-crypt and LUKS team,

I have a simple question regarding a sentence I found on the Fedora wiki in their encryption section. Here's a the quote, "LUKS does provide passphrase strengthening but it is still a good idea to choose a good (meaning "difficult to guess") passphrase."

What is meant by passphrase strengthening exactly and how is it accomplished?

Thank you,
- Adam Peterson
