Why do companies store previous passworda, does this make my now strong passwords moot due to not being being as security conscious previously and reusing passwords?
- djm_ 6y agoGenerally if a service was to keep them it would be to keep a history of passwords you may not use ever again. They wouldn't be available for use in authentication. Obviously this is very implementation specific though, and can't be considered a rule.
