Passphrase and Password Maintenance
Passphrases and passwords are the cornerstone to security in most of today's systems. Biometrics and two-factor authentication just haven't become mainstream in many systems which has become a major problem. If passwords are going to be used to secure a system then they should be turned into passphrases. Passphrases are longer than passwords and provide better protection than a password even when implemented with numbers and symbols.
