## What Jamie wrote

Love that password expirations and complexity requirements are fading and moving to **passphrases** is the trend. This is what I've been doing for my most secure passwords for a while. it isn't a password, it is an entire sentence with punctuation and all. Easy to remember and as long as you don't tell anyone it is secure for a very long time.
