Complexify
|
||
|
|
====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Websites have a responsibility to accurately inform users of password strength, both to better secure data, and to educate about users of what constitutes a good password.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Complexify aims to provide a good measure of password complexity for websites to use both for giving hints to users in the form of strength bars, and for *casually* enforcing a minimum complexity for security reasons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This plugin only provides client-side validation, and should be combined with some server-side sanity checking. If you want a full-blown Complexify implementation for the server, check out the list of ports.
