Hello everyone,
with all those recent leaks I was wondering if there is an efficient way to post-process passwords. For example we all know that the following strings come from the same word:
Which steps we can use to reduce the previous passwords to the good old password? I was thinking about stripping leading/trailing digits and special chars, then lowercase it and replace any leet speech.
Do you have any improvement to suggest?
Do you think that it could be an useful post-processing?
