Episode 75: Password Policy Design and Management

Passwords remain one of the most widely used—but frequently abused—authentication methods. In this episode, we explore how to design and manage effective password policies that balance usability with security. We cover best practices like minimum complexity, reuse prevention, expiration cycles, and password vaulting. You’ll also learn about modern recommendations from NIST that challenge older practices like frequent forced changes. CISSPs must understand how password policies impact behavior, system integration, and the broader security landscape, especially in hybrid and cloud environments.
