Detailed explanation-1: -A password policy sets the rules that passwords for a service must meet, such as length and type of characters allowed and disallowed. Additionally, the password policy might specify that an entry is disallowed if the term is in a dictionary of unwanted terms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Length of the password – preferably over 12 characters. Complexity of the password – must contain letters (upper and lower case), numbers, and symbols and have a minimum number of each. Contain no repetitive characters. Contain no human readable words, names, dates, or recognize context with the password.
Detailed explanation-3: -Passwords should use a minimum of eight characters, and systems should allow for passwords to be at least 64 characters. The longer the password, the harder it is to crack. Ensure that your staff creates more secure passwords by using upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and special characters.
