Can users reset their own passwords without sacrificing security?

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-03-12 08:01:11

Like it or not, passwords aren’t going away anytime soon. While many organizations are exploring passwordless authentication, passwords still serve as the main line of defense for most public-facing online services. That said, they come with a heavy management burden. Gartner estimates that 40% of all service desk calls are tied to password issues like expirations, changes, and resets. Some of these issues (like forgotten passwords, routine expirations, or security-driven updates) are unavoidab

3 Best Thermal Brush, Tested and Reviewed by WIRED (2025)

The best thermal brush for you will recreate a blow-out type of look on your dry hair—different than a blow-dry brush, which is designed for wet hair but has a similar look.

It's AMD's turn. After months of $2,000+ GPUs and long discussions of DLSS, we're finally on the red team's turf. AMD's strength historically lies at the budget end of the spectrum, where the majority of gamers are playing at 1080p, and spending $1,000 or less for their entire system. Even though we really recommend splurging on a GPU, that's just not the reality for most folks.
