Security is critical for every app, but can also be annoying and complicate simple flows. In this talk we will see how using a smart algorithm can make your UX simple without compromising security, by focusing on an example use case - password estimation

Security is critical for each and every app. One mistake or one breach can kill a business. However, security can sometimes be annoying and complicates simple flows. In this talk we will dive into one of these use cases - password strength. We will cover the importance of your customer’s passwords, learn how to estimate them and see tools that will help you evaluate those. We will also discover the trade-offs between product & security and how using a smart algorithm can make your UX simple without compromising security.
