## Password guidance
Constructing secure passwords and managing them properly is important. Frigate requires a minimum length of 12 characters. For guidance on password standards see [NIST SP 800-63B](https://pages.nist.gov/800-63-3/sp800-63b.html). To learn what makes a password truly secure, read this [article](https://medium.com/peerio/how-to-build-a-billion-dollar-password-3d92568d9277).
## Login failure rate limiting
In order to limit the risk of brute force attacks, rate limiting is available for login failures. This is implemented with SlowApi, and the string notation for valid values is available in [the documentation](https://limits.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html#examples).
