Does Longer Encryption Password Equal Better Encryption?
Just hypothetically speaking, if I encrypt one hard drive with a one letter password and another hard drive with a twenty letter password, will I see a difference in how fast my data is accessed? Is the data any more securely encrypted with a one letter vs, say, a twenty letter password? Does the computer have to "work harder" to de-crypt one vs twenty letters? And I am not talking about someone guessing the password, just in the encryption algorithms. Thank you.
