So here's the thing: Why not use another strong, randomly generated password as a answer to the control questions? Who says it has to be plain text?Let them try to guess the answer to the control question, if the answer is something like UVLYImVAGPgKPKaYo1fzMSbFCgMCK9Xvx4g6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jerry Ham Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I usually answer with something that is the same for all the questions. For example if they asked: Q1: Mother's maiden name? A1: dumbshit Q2: First automobile? A2: dumbshit Q3: Favorite Movie? A3: dumbshit Then store that word in Keepass, Lastpass, etc. as Stephen Anderson said above, don't ever answer with something someone could look up or social engineer out of your family or friends...
