Logical Access Control
Raymond Pompon · Apress eBooks · 2016
When you mention access control, most people’s minds go blank. Those few that understand technology usually think of passwords. When I think of passwords, I think of an organization that I worked with that had arguably the most difficult password policy I had ever encountered in my working life. The policy read: Passwords are required to be 12 characters, containing one symbol, one number, one lowercase, and one uppercase letter. Passwords must be changed every 45 days and new passwords cannot be related to previously used passwords. Passwords should never be written down or shared. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
