This entire practice was thrown out the window by senior management when the audit department went around one night and found that a very large majority of employees kept their passwords written down in their desks - sometimes attached to the desk, computer, monitor, or wall.
Often times it is paranoia that is the greatest risk to security. |
By me, Club Carlson is the worst - I've set it so many times due to forgetting it - this is what they require:
be at least 8 characters and no more than 20 contain one number from [0 - 9] contain one lowercase letter [a - z] contain one uppercase letter [A - Z] contain one of these special symbols: ! @ # $ % & * ( ) + ? cannot be the same as one of your previous 5 passwords |

Not even sure I've made a note of it this time and there is no way I would remember all that. |
