| Study Q220025. Your Password |
|
Question -
Using a long string of letters and numbers as a password is probably hard to guess, but also easy to forget. On the other hand, using your date of birth is easy to remember, but also easy to guess. When developers create web sites that require password, what do you think the password requirements should be?
