Advice on creating strong passwords notes that You have to combine upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbolswith a length of at least eight characters. These instructions are followed by Apple’s automatic generator, although not in the random way seen, for example, on Google.
This topic has moved to social networks, where user Jsveningsson has asked Mastodon directly to Apple Software Engineering Manager, Ricky Mondelloresponsible for the team in charge of the authentication experience in the company’s services and devices.
Mondello has confirmed that strong passwords follow a structure: are based on syllables. The reason is that they are easier to type on non-optimal keyboards, such as a video game controller.
The characters of the password, within the structure, are random, and include a number, a capital letter and as a symbol, the hyphen, as detailed by the Apple manager. These keys also have a length of 20 characters.
