Rights in relation to automated decision making - 2Identify three controls that can be placed on passwords and, for each, give an example of how it can enable the password to remain effectiveA minimum number of characters could be applied and this would mean that anyone trying to hack would be unsuccessful unless they knew the minimum number of characters. A combination of numbers and letters could be used, as this increases the possibilities which the password could be and makes it more difficult for them. Changing passwords monthly could also make it more effective, as the hacker may have found out what the password was, but if it is changed before they can use it, then they wont gain access to the computer
