There is no good reason. Ever tried updating password on Authorize.net? Good God! It's the dumbest shit ever. It doesn't tell you the whole criteria in a single sentence but goes through the list and displays them one by one. And resets everything you typed in the process. Kill me now
- tzs 10y agoWhat I do on Authorize.Net, and other sites that have password age limits and lack a clear explanation of the rules on the password change page of the rules is tweak the old password. For example, if the old password was '4phOhc}ve6BErc' I might do one of the following to come up with the new password: • Increment a digit: 5phOhc}ve6BErc • Increment a letter: 4qhOhc}ve6BErc • Change the case of a letter: 4PhOhc}ve6BErc • Transpose a pair of adjacent characters: 4phOh}cve6BErc Those transformations almost always result in a password that still obeys the rules.
