## Overview

Passwords remain the most attacked credential type, and password audits remain one of the highest-value defensive assessments: weak, reused, default, and breached passwords are still behind a large share of intrusions. A password audit checks policy, storage, and real-world exposure — then drives the organization toward fewer, stronger secrets and ultimately toward passwordless.

This skill covers defensive auditing only: policy review, configuration checks, and breach-exposure screening of your *own* organization's credentials with proper authorization. It does not cover cracking or bypassing anyone's passwords.

A password audit is a snapshot of a moving target — its real value is the trajectory it reveals. Are breached passwords being eliminated, is MFA coverage climbing, are legacy hashes disappearing? Report the trend lines alongside the findings, and frame every password recommendation as a step toward fewer passwords, not stronger ones.

## When to use

- Reviewing authentication posture as part of a security assessment or audit.
- After a breach or credential-leak incident involving your users.
- Designing password policy aligned with current NIST SP 800-63B guidance.
- Planning migration to MFA-everywhere and passwordless (passkeys/FIDO2).
