Shoulder Surfing Task of the Week

So this week, i was supposed to shoulder surf a target for their user name and password. Since i had a meeting with a IT Career Coach (no names)... i decided it would be a good idea to target my new victim. While we were engaging into our conversation about resume building and strategies, the coach had to log into their BHCC account to look at my GPA/Classes remaining. Quickly as i sat unnoticed in the corner, i was just looking over at their screen, i caught the user name but not the password. The password itself was greater than 8 digits. Being a great typer myself i can usually make out someones password by looking at keystrokes but i noticed this user used special symbols in their password thus not allowing me to photo memory the password. Oh well better luck next week i guess, and people are being more educated on using capitals + special characters for their password.

Luckily with my quick glance over, it did not make the situation any more ackward than it needed to be and i went on happily ever after :)

Tasks are getting tougher =(
