Understanding Password Guidelines

Understanding Password Guidelines
Password best practices fall into a few broad categories:

  • Resisting common attacks: This involves choosing where users enter passwords (trusted devices).
  • Containing successful attacks: Containing successful hacker attacks involves limiting exposure to a specific service. For example, ensuring that a compromised social media account doesn’t lead to a breach of your bank account.
  • Understanding human nature: Many valid password practices fail in the face of natural human behavior. Research shows that any rules imposed on users will lead to a weakening of password quality. Length requirements and special characters all lead to password standardization. This makes it easier for attackers to guess or crack them.
