Title: Windows Passwords: Everything You Need to Know

Description: Passwords have been used since early computing to protect user
accounts and sensitive data. Undoubtedly, your company has a password policy
and some enforcement of that policy. However, most people have no idea what
happens once a password is provided to the system or how strong a given
password is against a specific attack. In this chat, learn how Windows uses
passwords, including Windows password architecture, password hashing,
password length and complexity analysis, password storage and retrieval, and
the Stored User Names and Passwords feature.
