Security is hard. Many folks get it wrong. I have some Axis cameras with 8-character maximum passwords! (Plus they silently truncate when saving but not comparing, so you can set it to 123456789 but then you have to enter 12345678 to unlock).

It is hard. I'm trying to get better at it. And yeah that sucks. Truncating your password silently.
