I am a software engineer currently working for Yelp’s corporate security team. The project I described in the abstract was one that I led. While undergoing the project, I was shocked to see how few corporations were utilizing employee password filtering countermeasures against dictionary attacks, and how misunderstood increasing password complexity as a solution to the issue was. I would love to spread my knowledge on this topic to better educate the public on the most effective password-based policies to follow.
