Crédit Agricole Centre-Est, a French regional bank, is being criticised for its online banking login design, which requires customers to enter a 6-digit password by clicking an on-screen keypad rather than typing it directly. Security-minded users are highlighting it as an example of a poorly thought-out password rule, mocking the added friction and questioning what the design actually achieves.
Why now: People are mocking a clunky, arguably pointless banking login design that they see as bad usability and questionable security practice.
