Enforce a better password policy - our work password policy is minimum 8 characters, and 3 out of the 4 of the following: Upper Case Lower case Number Special Character - any shift + top row number) - ie !@#$%^&*(
By this policy hellowhowareyou wouldn't work because it only has lower case letters. Neither would Hellowhoware you since it only has 2 of the 4. But Hellohowareyou4 would. Or IP based authentication maybe?
