    Ubisoft Security Bug

    I'm gonna keep this post short and simple.

    Ubisoft really needs to step up it's security, my account keeps getting accessed from either russia, ukraine, or from china.

    Altough the 2fa keeps them from accessing my account, the fact that they can bruteforce my account is unbeliveable.

    The first step towards Ubisoft improving their security would be from the consumer side to not restrict the length of password security their account has.

    Why is it that the max amount of char for a password is 16? Altough the recommended amount for a "perfect password" is 12-15 characters long. It's not the recommended amount for high security, and high security passwords are needed for Ubisoft accounts as they don't have bruteforce protection of any sort.

    Honestly i would vote that Ubisoft would not restrict the length of their passwords. Or at least keep it at 64 or 128 while they're gonna ignore Bruteforcing problems. (You can try again and again to login with the wrong password.)

    I promised i would keep this short and simple so i'm out.

    Hi
    Get yourself a proper security which can run along with windows defender or whatever you using. I recommend Hitman Pro Alert - is consuming little resources
    Hope it helps.

    I'm a month late but why the heck would i need an antivirus for my computer? That's not the problem, the problem is with ubisoft and their security. If they can't make proper security then why not ask someone else to do it. They got battle-eye for every game they have, might as well ask their devs to pump up their security.
