Recently one "not to be named" res system decided to upgrade their security features. Thank you. I appreciate that. But when these companies that insist that my password is "8-10 letters and numbers that must include at least one capital letter, and at least one number and (now in this case) at least TWO special characters which can only be @& and a few others .. GRRRRR
How do people remember these passwords?? They write them down. THAT immediately eliminates the 'security". Come on software companies, YOU KNOW very well that most people that hack into systems do NOT get in by using someone's password, they do it through a back door firewall or not! We also know that people hacking into most systems are hacking into HUGE corp systems, where they get hundreds of thousands of cc numbers or personal info, and not the couple of hundred that a small business may have. Just take a look at those that have been hacked recently - including banks
So to whomever it is that sits and dreams up how many requirements you can put into my password .. PLEASE .. get real!!!!
