🗣 Description
[NIST's guidance] (https://pages.nist.gov/800-63-4/sp800-63b.html#passwordver) is: "Verifiers and CSPs SHALL require passwords to be a minimum of eight characters in length and SHOULD require passwords to be a minimum of 15 characters in length." Based on internal discussion we are looking to adopt as split SHALL/SHOULD approach for the policy.
