In password security, the longer the better. With a password manager, using more than 24 characters is simple. Unless, of course, the secure password is not accepted due to its length. (In this case, through STOVE.)
Possibly indicating cleartext storage of a limited field (which is an absolute no-go), or suboptimal or lacking security practices.
I got a login on an IBM system. I logged in and moved to the change password mask. Changed my password to something filling out the 12 character new password field. Logged out, and got the login mask again. With an eight character password field.
oh. this has been a big pet peeve of mine for awhile. After starting to use password managers I figured I would standardize on the largest required characters only to find a source whos maximum characters were lower than anothers minimum characters.
Then again, there's not much point to super long passwords. They'll be turned into hashes, commonly of 128, 196, or 256 bits length. When brute forcing, by a certain length, it's pretty much guaranteed there's a shorter combination computing to the same hash. And an attacker doesn't need your password, just some password that computes to the same hash. With 256 bit hashes a password with 1000 characters isn't more secure than one with 15 in any meaningful way.
When I banked with wells fucking fargo they had issues similar to this. I had something like a 16 character password and I once forgot the last character and it accepted it anyway, so there was some kind of character limit that they didn't make obvious.
I also had a time I accidentally had caps lock on, and my password still was accepted. Their passwords were not case sensitive even though their password screen says they were.
And then they store it in plain text anyway...
I had this problem with a fucking bank once. Even better are the sites that silently chop off characters after the internal limit, on the backend, but don't tell you or limit the characters on the frontend. I had a really fun time with that last scenario once, resetting my password over and over and having it never work until I decided to just try a shorter password.
24 is fine, not as bad as 12 and no special character. That's honestly the worst one i've encounter.
my bank app doesn't allow copy paste so i can't have anything that long and hard to type, and they tend to request password login when transferring money.
In my opinion, an acceptable password length should be L in ln(alphabetSize^L)/ln(2) = (B bits of entropy). For a Bech32 character set (since it excludes ambiguous characters), alphabetSize = 32. A good password should have been 96 and 256 bits of entropy, with 128 bits being my personal preference. This means L = (B)*ln(2)/ln(alphabetSize) = 128*ln(2)/ln(32) = 25.6 = 26 characters.
That's… pretty close to what OP said they were restricted to, so maybe the person who set the 24 character restriction used a similar methodology.
26 characters? Perfect!
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz it is! And I'll use it for everything!
