And don't forget the universal elixir that cures all security ills: adding even more rules about which passwords are allowed.
- olyjohn 7y agoMake sure you change your password every 30 days, too. That way I have to write it down, or use a sequential password just in order to be able to remember it.
- xamuel 7y agoNo worries, though: if you forget your password you can just call up IT and get it changed to "welcome1" :)
- singron 7y ago"Your password is too similar to one of your previous 24 passwords" -- an actual error message I've gotten before.
- hackinthebochs 7y agoGoogle started doing this. I spent an hour changing my password literally 100 times to clear their cache of the password I intended to set. It's insanity.
