+### Changes in Password Best Practices
+
+NIST recently published its four-volume  [_SP800-63b Digital Identity Guidelines_][3] . Among other things, it makes three important suggestions when it comes to passwords:
+
+1.  Stop it with the annoying password complexity rules. They make passwords harder to remember. They increase errors because artificially complex passwords are harder to type in. And they [don't help][1] that much. It's better to allow people to use pass phrases.
+
+2.  Stop it with password expiration. That was an [old idea for an old way][2] we used computers. Today, don't make people change their passwords unless there's indication of compromise.
+
+3.  Let people use password managers. This is how we deal with all the passwords we need.
+
+These password rules were failed attempts to [fix the user][4]. Better we fix the security systems.
