The use of a username and password is one of the best-known and most widely used methods of authentication. The catch: Due to the numerous attack vectors, this type of authentication is also among the least secure. This makes it more important to understand password security and how to handle passwords correctly. The course 'Passwords and Authentication' provides support in this regard, presenting the key aspects of the topic in a clear and practical manner.
