Security experts, in order to protect passwords on computers, have
come back on their initial recommendations. The rules issued by NIST
(i.e. National Institute of Standards and Technology), the governmental
agency, in 2003, seem obsolete and ultimately unnecessary or in any
case not necessarily more secure than a simple password in single
letters. To slow down the work of the hackers, it was proposed to use
special characters, capital letters and numbers with a minimum number
of signs of 8 and more. Bill Burr's recommendations were aimed at preventing hackers from guessing too much of our passwords. These rules,
however, have a perverse effect. By standardizing the rules, people
take bad habits, such as putting the capital letter at the beginning of
the password and number at the end. The NIST now suggest using long
sentences that are easy to remember, to the detriment of more "classic"
passwords. In France, it was even recommended to use 12 characters
(rather than 8) and to mix the phonetic method and the method of the
first letters of a sentence or a proverb. Therefore, is "NotreDamedeParis" better than "N5k$rH>d!?3", difficult to say? At least there are other
methods maybe simpler... Why making passwords complicate if at the
end of the day, they aren't more secured than simple ones? You should
ask experts in security. I'm not sure they have a final answer.

LE MAGAZINE DU TRESORIER / TREASURER MAGAZINE

To find a good password,
secured, numbers and
capital letters are not
necessarily useful.
