[QUOTE="TheFinalEpic, post: 1204833, member: 7073"] I've actually had the exact opposite experience, that there are banks here that believe that a [b]maximum of 6[/b] character password is adequate. I left that bank, but the time it would take to brute force a 6 character password with current technology is about as long as it took you to read this sentence. And that is with special characters and such, if its anything simpler than that, it would be an instant crack. I think that the point made about the fact that software developers don't even really know what they are doing is super accurate. [/QUOTE]
