You store u/p to your Lawyer's website, which has a copy of your Will. You die and the Executor of your Estate tries to access the Lawyer's website, only to be met with "invalid password".

It turns out that the kdbx on your private server got silently corrupted (ex. fs corruption) ~5 years prior to your death. However, your Dropbox backups only have 30 days of previous kdbx versions.

Can your Executor handle the disappointment?

I believe this issue is grave enough.

How are they cracking the 40+ char random alpha numeric password on my box? With fail2ban in place, and it's on a random port.

That answer does not inspire confidence.

1) Random port is not helping against a specific attacker. Get a real firewall 2) Fail2ban is not a real firewall 3) Keys only, no passwords. 40chars is nothing compared to a strong rsa key with a 40char password on it
