But I got curious, and I decided to go talk to the people in charge of our computer systems and find out what led them to introduce this new policy, and they said that the university had joined a consortium of universities, and one of the requirements of membership was that we had to have stronger passwords that complied with some new requirements, and these requirements were that our passwords had to have a lot of entropy.
Ali sam postala znatiželjna i odlučila sam razgovarati s ljudima zaduženim za računalne sustave i otkriti što ih je navelo da uvedu ovu novu politiku. Rekli su mi da se sveučilište pridružilo konzorciju sveučilišta, a jedan od uvjeta za članstvo je da članovi imaju jake lozinke. Te lozinke su morale odgovarati novim pravilima, ta pravila su zahtijevala da naše lozinke budu poprilično entropične.
