No real standard...but your best bet is:
1. No words in dicitionary
2. Use upper and lower case
3. Have at least one or two digits in it also.
4. Have at least one special character (like a $ or &)
5. The longer it is, the better.

We are wanting to implement "strong" passwords in our applications and as I've been searching the internet I've not yet found any real standardizations for what constitutes the strength of a password. Does anyone know if there is some place that this is defined or is it just left up to the individual as to what constitues weak, poor, fair, good, strong, excellent, etc?
