i found this interesting: Password length best practices --What is the standard for maximum password length? Your passwords have to get quite long before you run into any limitations in the Windows world: the maximum length of a password supported by Active Directory is 256 characters. The maximum length of a password that a human user could actually type to log into Windows in 127 characters (the limitation is in the Windows GUI). 127 is probably quite impractical for a user to type, but might be good for admin accounts where passwords are checked out and copied and pasted from a password vault. Service account passwords that are almost never typed and possibly rarely changed (if ever) could stand to be longer still. https://specopssoft.com/blog/password-length-best-practices/ https://specopssoft.com/blog/password-length-best-practices/
