The combination of all possible system IDs and passwords leads to an exceptionally vast number of possible SMPP credential pairs, significantly enhancing the security potential.

Unlike personal login credentials, SMPP credentials are typically used by applications. This allows them to be fully random and utilize the maximum length for both system IDs and passwords, thereby maximizing their strength. It is essential to protect both the system ID and password, but at a minimum, the password must be securely protected to maintain the integrity of the system.
