There is an ongoing debate among users and specialists about the effectiveness of passwords used to authenticate subjects of access to information systems. The relevance of choosing the topic of the article is explained by the use of passwords in almost any information system, and in many systems password protection is used as the only means. At the same time, the password's resistance to opening often determines the security of the entire information system. Domestic and foreign modern approaches to password policy formation are analyzed and generalized. On this basis, proposals have been developed to improve the protection of information using passwords.
