Hello!

Does someone know how to create a password complexity system?
Example: Password is 12345 then the server says...you have to use symbols, numbers and characters in your password.
People are using too simple passwords. Everyone can guess these. I don't really want that in my server.
And yes I'm using whirlpool to protect sensitive data.

I want a system that doesnt let people to use so easy passwords.

Thank you!

It's been proven that longer passwords are better than more complex passwords.



I would honestly just create an array with the top 20 most commonly used passwords (qwerty, 123456, letmein, etc.) and disallow the password if it's found in there. And then a minimum limit of 7 characters.

Thanks for that.
