Telling humans to change passwords monthly or even quarterly is a lofty goal that doesn’t really consider human behavior. Is it a good idea to change All your passwords now? Probably. Will we do it? Probably not. A better idea would be for companies to actually secure their environments so that this doesn’t happen in the first place.

If you use a password manager that generate 12+ character randomly generated passwords there is no reason to change them unless you know a particular account or website was hacked and you can find that through haveibeenpwned. Add in alerts on all your financial accounts, 2FA and freezing your credit reports and you should be pretty safe if you don’t fall for online and phone scams.

Change passwords at least quarterly. With dual authentication, it sometimes isn’t necessary to change as frequently.

Given AT&T's breach .....hackers are building an AI Big Data process to adapt to password changes. It doesn't matter how often you change your password. There is a limit of combinations. What needs to change is a move away from passwords to AI controlled security access that doesn't need letters, symbols, punctuation, or numbers but rather constantly changing behavioral outcomes where by 3D folding space imaging are created as a result of random AI-created coordinates of theoretical physics concepts.
