In Counter-Strike: Source, setting a password for a server is a security feature that allows server administrators to restrict access to their server to only those who know the password. Adding a password is particularly useful for private games, tournaments, or playing for a specific group of players. Players trying to join a password-protected server must enter the correct password to gain access, ensuring that only authorized individuals can participate in the game.
