What should be the minimum password length for FortiAnalyzer?

The minimum password length for FortiAnalyzer is set at 8 characters. This requirement is in place to enhance the security of user accounts and protect against unauthorized access. Longer passwords generally provide a higher level of security, as they increase the number of possible combinations an attacker would need to guess.

In many security frameworks, passwords that are too short can be more easily compromised through brute force attacks. By establishing a minimum of 8 characters, Fortinet aims to ensure that users create stronger passwords that are more resistant to such attacks.

Choosing a password with a length of 8 or more characters encourages the inclusion of a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, and even special characters, further enhancing security.
