Password Age Rule

The password age rule ensures that users cannot use expired passwords or change their passwords too frequently.

Specify Minimum password age so that passwords cannot be changed until they are more than a certain number of days old. If a minimum password age is defined, users must wait for the specified number of days to change their passwords.

Specify Maximum password age so that passwords expire as often as necessary for your environment.

To configure the password age rule

  1. Follow the steps outlined in Configuring Password Policy Rules.

  2. On the Policy Rules tab, click Password Age Rule to expand the rule settings.

  3. Under Password Age Rule, select the Specify password age check box, then specify the following options as required:

Table 15: Password age limit

Option

Description

Minimum password age

Specifies for how many days users must keep new passwords before they can change them.

Maximum password age

Specifies for how many days a password can be used before the user is required to change it.

Length Rule

The length rule ensures that passwords contain the required number of characters.

Define a minimum length so that passwords must consist of at least a specified number of characters. Long passwords - seven or more characters - are usually stronger than short ones. With this setting, users cannot use blank passwords, and they have to create passwords that are a certain number of characters long.

To configure the length rule

  1. Follow the steps outlined in Configuring Password Policy Rules.

  2. On the Policy Rules tab, click Length Rule to expand the rule settings.

  3. Under Length Rule, select the Password must contain check box, and then specify the following options as required:

Table 16: Password length limit

Option

Description

Minimum characters

Set the minimum number of characters that a password must contain.

Maximum characters

Complexity Rule

The complexity rule ensures that passwords meet the following minimum complexity requirements:

  • Not contain the user's account name or parts of the user's full name that exceed two consecutive characters

  • Be at least six characters in length

  • Contain characters from three of the following four categories:

    • English uppercase characters (A through Z)

    • English lowercase characters (a through z)

    • Base 10 digits (0 through 9)

    • Non-alphabetic characters (Supported characters are ~`!#$%\^&*+=-[];,/{}._|":<>?()@

The complexity rule imposes the same requirements as the standard Windows policy “Password must meet complexity requirements.”

To configure the complexity rule

  1. Follow the steps outlined in Configuring Password Policy Rules.

  2. On the Policy Rules tab, click Complexity Rule to expand the rule settings.

  3. Under Complexity Rule, select the Password must meet complexity requirements check box.

Required Characters Rule

The required characters rule ensures that passwords contain certain character categories.

Required characters are necessary to make a password stronger. For example, if you set the minimum number of uppercase characters to 4, then the password “ElePHant” will be rejected.

To configure the required characters rule

  1. Follow the steps outlined in Configuring Password Policy Rules.

  2. On the Policy Rules tab, click Required Characters Rule to expand the rule settings.

  3. Under Required Characters Rule, select the Password must contain at least check box, and then specify the following options as required:
