Sept 13th Workshop: General comment #17

Closed sdog-mitre closed 8 years ago

sdog-mitre commented 8 years ago

General Comment

Threat ID: None.

Type of Comment:

Proposed Change: It would be helpful to identify the implications of implementing countermeasures when they potentially conflict with other security goals. For example, requiring a 15-character complex password counters many attacks on passwords. However, that hurts usability of the password for end users.

Justification: Help readers make more informed decisions regarding the proposed countermeasures to adopt.
