The National Institute of Standards suggests that current password strength policies are ineffective and may worsen security. Traditional methods emphasized a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters, combined with frequent expiration dates. This often leads to users creating complex passwords they cannot remember, forcing them to write them down, which compromises security. The new guidance recommends focusing on password length as the main factor for strength. A longer password is much harder to crack, making it a more effective approach to password security.
