Re: Passphrases v Password

[Will Froning <will.froning () GMAIL COM>]

I came across this Emerson College IT blog: <http://press.emerson.edu/it/>

The first few entries are about their new password policy. I don't work there, but just happened to have found it 
earlier this week.

Thanks,
Will

Greetings,  
American University is moving to require passphrases, 16 character minimum, with upper and lower case requirement for 
standard users (staff, students, and faculty).  

I would love to hear from anyone that has gone down this path and experiences from their customers.  

Thanks
