["Andrew Williams" <Andrew () Syngress com>]

Jennifer,

We're actually about to publish a book on ideas/strategies for building
passwords and password policies. We have a sample chapter available on
our Web site that gives 10 pointers for developing/remembering
passwords. Just click on the sample chapter link under the cover image
to read the PDF:

Good luck,
Andrew
