Creating a Password Policy

To create a password policy, you need add a connection to the AD LDS instance to which this policy will be applied.

The account you use to access the AD LDS instance for which you want to create password policies should have the following permissions:

  • The Read permission for attributes of the groupPolicyContainer objects.
  • The Write permission to create and delete the groupPolicyContainer objects in the System Policies container.
  • The permission to create and delete container and the serviceConnectionPoint objects in Group Policy containers.
  • The Read permission for the attributes of the container and serviceConnectionPoint objects in Group Policy containers.
  • The Write permission for the serviceBindingInformation and displayName attributes of the serviceConnectionPoint objects in Group Policy containers.

To connect to AD LDS instance

  1. On the home page of the Administration site, click the Password Policies tab.
  2. Click Connect to AD LDS instance to add an instance for which you want to create password policies.
  3. If connections already exist, select a connection from the list. If you want to create a new connection, click Add new connection.
  4. If you selected to create the new connection, in the Connect to AD LDS Instance dialog, configure the following options:
    • In the Server name on which AD LDS instance is installed text box, type the name of the server to which you want to connect.
    • In the Port number (LDAP or SSL) text box, enter the port number that you specified when installing the AD LDS instance. If you select the Use SSL check box, enter the SSL port number; otherwise, LDAP port number. It is recommended to use SSL in your production environment.
    • In the Application directory partition text box, enter the name of the application directory partition from the AD LDS instance to which you want to connect.
    • In the Application directory partition alias text box, type the alias for the application directory partition which will be used to address the partition on the Self-Service site.
    • In the Access account section, select Password Manager Service account to have Password Manager access the AD LDS instance using the Password Manager Service account, otherwise, select The following Active Directory account or The following AD LDS account radio button and enter the required user name and password.
  5. Click Save.

For more information on modifying settings for the connection, see AD LDS Instance Connections.

Managing Password Policy Scope

This section provides information on how to apply a password policy to organizational units and groups in a managed AD LDS instance.

Applying Password Policies

In Password Manager (PM) application, scopes can be defined at multiple levels. Scopes act as a boundary in which you can define the groups and Organization Unit (OU), and can also associate policies into it.

The Default Management Policy allows you to configure both the user scope and the help desk scope. In the Management Policy scope, an admin can also associate the workflows, activities, and Q&A policy to the configured user groups and OU.

While configuring the user scope/help desk scope, an admin must define either a Group or an OU to indicate which group or OU can access the self-service site/helpdesk site. This means the users who are part of the configured group/OU comes under included group category. You could also define a different group/OU under an excluded group category. This means users who are part of these excluded group or OU cannot access self-service site/helpdesk site.

In case of Password Policy scope, admin needs to ensure the following

  • Password policies should only be applied to the user groups/ OUs that are part of the Userscope.
  • Group that will be associated into the password policy scope must be part of the OU as well. This means users who are part of the group must also be the part of the OU as those users will have the same set of activities to be performed in the self-service site.
  • An Administrator can create one or more password policies and can map each policy to single/ multiple user groups or OUs.
  • By default, the newly created password policy is linked to the Domain name created in the management policy scope and gets applied to the “Authenticated users group. It means that all the users that are part of the usergroups and OUs configured in the user scope, will have the password policy applied.
  • Group that will be associated into the password policy scope must be part of the OU as well. This means users who are part of the group must also be the part of the OU as those users will have the same set of activities to be performed in the self-service site.

IMPORTANT:

  • While configuring the Policy Scope in Password Policy Properties window, it is mandatory to add both the group and the Organizational unit that the user is part of, for the policy rules to get applied for the users accessed in the self-service site.
  • It is not possible to configure the same domain multiple times in a user scope, whereas multiple domains can be configured to the userscope.

The table below provides more information on different scenarios.

Let us consider the following groups/OU

NOTE: Do not define both OU and the group in the Management policy scope for the set password policy rule to get applied in the self-service site.
