I honestly don’t understand this. Government IT environments typically don’t let you choose your own passwords — ESPECIALLY for priveliged access — and they enforce random, complex passwords that are forced to change frequently. In addition, they typically require a hardware-based access key or token. And CISA is the federal agency charged with ensuring government systems are secure????
