Comment on Password Restrictions are Bad by Phil

I found this post searching for an official reason why such seemingly arbitrary restrictions are in place. There were some plausible responses on the evanfosmark site you link to. I’m confused thinking password protocols would be standardized; instead, they look “homemade.” Okay, here are some strange rules I have to deal with:

from my university website:
8-14 chars long
“some combination of” letters and numbers and at least one special char (e.g., +, @, #, or $)
The following characters can NOT be used: _ ` & !
and then it goes on with the usual caveat about dictionary words and no prior passwords, etc.

I’m wondering whether I can use the /really/ special chars like ß, ☺, ½, etc?

from my financial institution:
8-15 chars long (not case sensitive), Aa-Zz, 0-9, -, _
at least one letter, one number, no spaces.

So they allow the dash and underscore, but nothing else.. seems a little pointless. OTOH, if I accidentally enter the wrong password even once, I get an email saying so. I don’t know why more sites aren’t doing this.

I will see what I can do. I’m not sure if this still applies to Zend Framework 1.11.3 (latest).

Thank you for writing this good article. Could you publish the code what you needed to change to adjust MemchaceQ with Zend framework?
