Häufig gestellte Fragen

What does NIST say about password policies?

NIST 800-63B: minimum 8 characters, no composition rules (no forced special chars), check against breached password lists, no periodic rotation requirements. Focus on length over complexity.

Should I require special characters?

NIST says no — it leads to predictable patterns (P@ssw0rd!). Instead, require minimum length (12+), check against breach databases, and support passphrases.
