Create password strength rules

We can create a password policy that defines the rules to which passwords must conform. For example, password strength rules might specify that the minimum number of characters of a password must be five. The rules might specify that the maximum number of characters must be 10.

By default, the Service owner persona can view this task and create password policies for the services the owner persona owns. Furthermore, users who can view this task and have appropriate ACI permissions can create password strength rules.

Procedure

1. From the navigation tree, select Manage Policies > Manage Password Policies.
2. Create a password policy or change an existing one. Ensure that we selected a service on the Targets tab to which you apply the password policy.
3. Using the Rules tab for the password policy that we select, specify the rules that determine whether a password entry is valid. See Password strength rules.
