Why aren't your password requirements more stringent?
Paperless Pipeline password requirements are strategically designed to enhance your account's security by adhering to the latest guidelines recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
NIST advises against imposing arbitrary rules like requiring a specific mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols because they don't guarantee a strong password. In fact, ironically, stricter password requirements can lead people to create more uniform passwords to satisfy the criteria, making passwords easier to guess and harder to remember.
Instead, we encourage unique but memorable passwords by permitting you to decide which characters to use.
