Which of the following is most effective in preventing an attacker from easily guessing or cracking a password?
Using a password without any numeric characters
Setting the password expiration to 90 days
Avoiding the use of special characters in the password
Increasing the number of characters in the password
Longer passwords are generally more secure because they increase the number of possible combinations, making brute-force attacks more difficult and time-consuming. Although password complexity and lack of password reuse are important, increasing length has the most significant impact on a password's strength against cracking attempts.
