by Sam, 7 years agoI think I logged in with an old account when I last reviewed this, but was very happy with the developers response.
It’s great to see this is open source!

Hi,
That was an amazingly quick and concise reply, thank you!
NIST recommends the MINIMUM maximum password length to be 64 characters, I would recommend setting the maximum password length to at least that.
The great thing about long password is not just that they’re harder to crack, it’s easier to remember them and make them unique by using passphrases, for example:
“John walked to the store to get some milk” is easy to remember and actually quite secure. (NOTE: no one use this pass phrase, it’s just an example!)
Thank you so much for providing a link to the library it uses, it gives me so much confidence that you’re open about what’s being used and how etc...
Great work!

posted 7 years agoThanks for the reference to NIST. The next version will have the maximum length increased to 64 as recommended. Thanks again for your feedback!
