Way back in 2006 I wrote about how password changes were a bad idea [0], backed up commentary by Eugene Spafford [1]. I'm dismayed that the password change policy is still very prevalent at the corporate level, almost 17 years later. It's an annoying practice for users that needs to stop. Where I work, policy forces use of two-factor authentication but still forces users to change passwords every 90 days. This is completely non-sensical.
