Hello,I'm been tasked with writing our website password policy and am wondering if there are best practices for this. I'm torn between the security aspect versus the customer overhead and dissasatifaction of the typical website user if the password rules are too complex.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you. Bob _________________________________________________________________Check out the great features of the new MSN 9 Dial-up, with the MSN Dial-up Accelerator. http://click.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200361ave/direct/01/
