10% of accounts still have initial passwords? That's wild!

I feel like requiring stronger passwords is important, but it might not address the issue of accounts that are just sitting there unused.

I practiced a similar question where changing passwords regularly was emphasized, but I can't recall if that was the best approach here.

I think the option about locking accounts after 15 days of inactivity makes sense, especially since 10% haven't been used in over six months.

I remember discussing how unused accounts can be a security risk, but I'm not sure which policy would be most effective.
