Password Rules Easily guessed passwords pose a significant security threat. Beyond the breach or loss of private and intellectual property that may be sustained through unauthorized access to such accounts, an even greater risk exists. Intruders are usually interested in cracking account name/password pairs not so much for the contents of a particular account but as a platform to look for and exploit potential security vulnerabilities elsewhere in the system. The intruder's interest may range from causing a nuisance to inflicting serious and widespread harm. Gaining access to an account, any account, is a first and important step.
