Max password lengths should be illegal. I hear they’re mostly due to outdated backend Linux systems. Those should be illegal for most organizations too (like banks). One bank I use had a NINE character pw limit— seriously!?
-
Pffft 12 character limit, that's too safe! My bank has a 6 character limit... and passwords must be only numbers...
-
asgs112757y@sSam yes that was my first thought too, but since they only accept numbers, 000000 *might* be treated as 0 failing the length validation, etc., But yeah, it is definitely more than 900000

sSam14837y@asgs never thought of storing password as a number. Would be so fucked up thought, but I wouldn't be so surprised if there's a bank out there who does that out there to save space or something and truncates the zeros. From my experience though, all shitty systems I've worked with store everything as a string, and I mean everything.
Password max length: 12 characters
Additional requirements: exactly 1 special character and exactly 2 numbers.
