Re: Security Tools - Analyze default passwords

   We have a product from Hawkeye (I'm sure there are other p= roducts) that
   has an implementation of this. Hawkeye's implementation will = not check
   the password if it is one invalid attempt away from disabling. Th= e
   upside on this is that you don't get disabled passwords. The downside is    
that you cannot verify that the ones not checked aren't using a default
   pas= sword.

   However, if the user is using their profi= le as their password we would
   certainly hope that they can get that right o= n the first time! But I've
   seen worse...
