The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Crypt::GeneratePassword
DSLIP: Rdpfp
description: gener. secure random pronounceable passwords
userid: JWALT (Jörg Walter)
chapterid: 14 (Security_and_Encryption)
communities:
similar:
Crypt::RandPasswd
rationale:
Just like Crypt::RandPasswd, it is related to Encryption and/or
Authentication, and it's sole purpose is to generate good passwords,
so Crypt::GeneratePAssword seems a natural choice..
It doesn't use a flashing new approach, but to my knowledge, an
approach never actually implemented. Distinct from Crypt::RandPasswd
by the important fact that Crypt::RandPasswd's method has been
proven to be insecure. Since making it secure would break compliance
to the FIPS-181 NIST standard, Crypt::RandPasswd cannot be fixed.
This module explicitly does not adhere to that standard but tries to
do the Right Thing(tm).
