A strong password policy should include several key elements:
1. Length and Complexity: Passwords should be at least 8-12 characters long and include a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. 2. Expiration and Rotation: Passwords should be changed regularly, typically every 60-90 days. 3. Account Lockout: Implementing a lockout mechanism after a certain number of failed attempts can prevent brute-force attacks. 4. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Adding an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of identification.
