Absolutely, as I said I outsource all storing of credit card information to Authorize.net. Storing them myself is not a responsibility that I would take lightly and I'm sure they'll do a better job than me.

For passwords, while I do not force users to have secure passwords, I of course allow complex passwords (including 32 characters with any symbols and so on) because this is what I use and if there's one thing I hate, it's websites like my bank that force me to only use 6 numbers for the password.



Why only 32?


That was just to take his example, I don't actually limit the length of passwords (although seeing http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3002828/bcrypt-says-long-... I should limit to 71 characters)
