Hi all, I remember reading somewhere that one practice for having strong passwords was to allow the users to write them down but treat the paper on which they were written like a credit card. If I remember correctly, the argument went that since people don't leave credit cards lying around, they would not leave their passwords lying around either. Has anyone tried this approach?
