<VulnDiscussion>Use of a complex password phrase helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password phrase complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Password phrase complexity is one factor of several that determines how long it takes to crack a password. The more complex the password phrase, the greater the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
