I'm convinced this isn't particularly secure because it just results in the following. Mandatory password change, password can't be any of your last six, bla bla bla. Boom rotating stock of my last six, you happy?

"BOB-CEMU" "BOB-MERC" "BOB-SIVA" "BOB-MILK" "BOB-CERA" "BOB-DELT"

Had one company where you couldn't use the same password for 12 months, 10 digit minimum, and had to change it every month
