I don’t know about you, but I get a feeling of dread when I need to change an account password.
Why?
Because of years of receiving warning messages for submitting my new password incorrectly.
With no indication of what characters the password must contain.
Who hasn’t received messages similar to:
- Your password must be at least 10 characters long, but not longer than 18 characters
- You cannot use %, ^, or & in your password. The only accepted special characters are *, $, and +
- You must use at least three upper case letters and two lower case letters in your password
